The Chemistry Department offers two degree options. The BA major is primarily designed for students intending to work in chemical laboratories following graduation, students planning to teach who need an endorsement in chemistry, and pre-professional (pre-medical, pre-dental, pre-veterinary, pre-pharmacy) students.
