Lower Division
The following lower-division courses are required for the three majors in chemistry: In addition
- MATH 039 - Calculus III recommended for all majors, and especially recommended for B.S. majors and those considering attending graduate school in the sciences.
Upper Division
The following upper-division courses are required for all three majors in chemistry: For the chemistry B.A. major, students must take
Note
BIOL 135 may count as an upper-division course if BIOCHEM 101 or BIOL 102 are not taken. A combination of one to three CHEM 197 /CHEM 199 courses that equal 1.0 or more credit can count for one upper division course.
*Note regarding Math requirements: Exposure to multivariable calculus is recommended preparation for CHEM 114 , and strongly recommended for students planning to attend graduate school in chemistry. Students learn the most multivariable calculus by taking MATH 027 , MATH 038 , and MATH 039 , and therefore this course of study is the preferred option. Students should learn a small amount of multivariable calculus by taking MATH 027 and this plan should be followed for students who will not take MATH 039 .
*Notes regarding prerequisites: (1) BIOCHEM 101 requires prerequisites of BIOL 001 OR strong high school preparation in biology and instructor approval. Students obtaining instructor approval to enroll in BIOCHEM 101 may waive BIOL 001 as a requirement for the BS major. (2) BIOL 135 requires BIOL 001 as a prerequisite, and students can obtain instructor permission to enroll in BIOL 135 without completing BIOL 002 .
