Chemistry Minor


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs of Study

Closed to Chemistry and Biochemistry majors.

The chemistry minor represents a valuable complementary field of study especially for students majoring in biology, geology, criminal justice and physics or experimental psychology. It is also possible that students in non-scientific areas of the liberal arts will find this minor a very rewarding and valuable part of their general education.

Special Note: Students must maintain an average grade of 2.0 in courses counted toward the minor.

Program Requirements


Required Courses: 8 Credits


Elective Courses: 14 Credits


Under advisement from the department’s elective course offerings.

Only one non-major chemistry course (i.e., courses not requiring CHEM 106   or higher as a prerequisite) may be counted towards the chemistry minor.

Recitations cannot be counted as elective courses.

Total Credit Hours Required: 22
