Students interested in a career in the chemical industry
or graduate study in chemistry should enroll in the Bachelor of
Science program. Changes in the program to meet the specific needs
of each student may be arranged in consultation with the student's
adviser. Students planning a career in medicine or graduate study
in biochemistry should include Biochemistry I and II in their program,
or follow the Biological Chemistry (Biochemistry)
emphasis. The department of Chemistry also offers a Bachelor
of Science degree with a Forensic Science Emphasis
and an Environmental Emphasis.
