Chemistry Secondary Emphasis
More Information
Many students are interested in chemistry, and share this interest with similar interest
in other related areas. Some of these students declare a "Secondary Emphasis" in chemistry.
The department sets secondary emphasis course requirements. List course requirements
below:
- Minimum of 22 credits of coursework with a CH designation
- At least three of the credits have to be at the 300 or 400 level
- At least three of the credits cannot be counted as part of another POE
- At least three out of five of the sub-disciplines of chemistry must be represented beyond the level of the introductory ICP courses (CH 142, 143, 144, and 145). These areas include analytical, inorganic, organic and physical chemistry plus biochemistry
