The Program
Chemistry is a discipline essential to the training for many
pre-professional fields as well as the health sciences. All classes are
transferable to other schools in the state system of higher education and most
other universities and colleges.
Chemistry classes are offered at four levels:
A general one-semester survey class for fulfilling general education requirements for non-technical students;
A two-semester health science series of inorganic, organic and biochemistry;
A two-semester series of pre-engineering/pre-professional general inorganic chemistry;
A two-semester series of organic chemistry.
A preparatory class (CHEM 1100) is available to students with no previous courses in chemistry.
Preparation Note
Students who need to take preparatory classes to meet the requirements of
first-semester courses should plan on extra time to complete the program.
For students majoring in chemistry, Calculus I is considered the entry-level
math class.
Prerequisites
It is the student's responsibility to examine each course description for
details of prerequisite classes. Those prerequisites must be satisfied
before the designated class may be taken.
Class Availability
The semesters in which courses are taught are listed here and in the course
descriptions. Students should check the semester class schedule for
day/evening availability and modifications caused by varying enrollment.
