Third Year

CHEM 351-352        Physical Chemistry            6 cr

Plus 6 additional upper-division credits in chemistry, approved by the department and not to include 481-482, 491-492.

No more than 40 credits in chemistry will be allowed toward graduation in this program.

Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry majors should complete ENGL 101 and SPCH 101 (Goals 1 and 2 of the General Education Requirements) during the freshman year and ENGL 201 should be passed by or during the sophomore year. Goal 3 (mathematics) should be fulfilled by MATH 121 and 222 as early as feasible. The other General Education Requirements (Goals 4 and 6-12) should be taken as credit loads allow.
