Chemistry, Bachelor of Arts 1 Chemistry, Bachelor of Arts The B.A. in Chemistry is available in two specializations: Chemistry and Chemistry/Biochemistry. Both specializations are designed for students who need a strong background in chemistry for application in other fields such as business, education, forensic science, premedical, pre-dental, pre-law, and some environmental fields. The program is designed for students who need a strong background in chemistry for application in other fields. The tracks within this program are business, pre-law, and education, and chemical hygiene. Each track has the same core of chemistry courses and a set of required courses which depends on the area of concentration. The education track meets the American Chemical Society (ACS) recommendations for a Chemistry/Education degree. Students may also complete an advisor approved minor or its 15-18 sh equivalent in a field related to the student s career objectives. Program Requirements In addition to the university s general requirements, students seeking the B.A. in Chemistry must meet the requirements listed below. Students should consult with their academic advisor for courses which may satisfy both the General Education requirements and common prerequisites. A grade of C- or better is required in all common prerequisites. No grade below a C- in a major course may be applied toward graduation.
