Why study chemistry?
Chemistry is often referred to as the central science
because of the way that it brings together mathematics,
physics and computer science with biology, medicine,
environmental science, forensic science, and earth
science. It can involve either basic or applied studies in the
broad areas of physical, organic, analytical, inorganic, or
biochemistry. Understanding chemistry is fundamental to
understanding the physical world around us.
This major program provides the normal preparation in
chemistry for students planning on employment as chemists
and considerable chemical background in preparation for
careers outside chemistry. It is appropriate for some
students who plan to enter professional schools such as
dentistry or public and environmental health.
Student Learning Outcomes:
• Demonstrate a knowledge of major concepts in the
areas of inorganic, organic, analytical, and physical
chemistry
• Demonstrate sufficient preparation in chemistry to
successfully compete in a science-related career;
• Demonstrate a capacity to use modern instrumentation
and classical techniques for the analysis and or
separation of chemicals and an ability to interpret data;
• Demonstrate effective oral and written communication
skills and critical thinking skills as related to the field of
chemistry;
• Demonstrate knowledge of safe practices in the
handling, usage and disposal of chemicals.
