Chemistry Minor
Gain creative and analytical insight into this “central science,” which bridges physics, geology and biology.
Our program allows you to explore the fundamental principles of chemistry and understand how it bridges physics, geology and biology.
Through courses general chemistry, qualitative analysis and organic chemistry, plus extensive laboratory experience, you will develop a broad understanding of principles, theories and calculations used in the field.
A minor in chemistry is particularly useful if you are striving for a career in environmental science, biology, business, law or education. Additionally, a minor in chemistry helps to prepare you for graduate study in pharmacy, dentistry, medicine, forensics and biotechnology.
