Chemistry
Learn to think creatively, solve complex problems, and analyze your findings while becoming savvy in the sciences. You’ll work closely with faculty to find the work that excites you most, then tailor your classes to guide you in that direction. Our one-credit Industrial Lab Sciences courses will give you an edge in corporate lab settings.
Have your sights set on an advanced degree? The American Chemical Society Certified Degree pathway prepares you for graduate school.
Learn More About the Program
As a chemistry major, you can focus on courses (or even declare a double major) in biochemistry & molecular biology or physics, pursue a track designed for students interested in pre-medicine or health, or combine chemistry with your interests in teaching, the humanities, arts, or social sciences. Interested students can earn a B.S. in chemistry and engineering with our Engineering 3+2 program.
An LVC chemistry degree will prepare you for work in fields such as genetics, organic and inorganic chemistry, neuropharmacology, and more. Or you can move straight to industry—our alums work as analysts, researchers, and scientists at companies such as Glaxo SmithKline, Nestle Purina Pet Care, Cargill, and Nissin Foods.
