Chemistry Minor

Requirements for a minor in chemistry consist of 20 credit hours. To complete the minor, students must complete the required foundational courses and two of the three listed Upper Division Elective courses. One Upper Division Elective course is considered to be the lecture and its associated laboratory. Students applying to health professional schools are required to complete organic chemistry II with lab (CHE 312 & CHE 312 L) to meet admissions requirements. Biology majors are strongly encouraged to take Quantitative Chemical Analysis (CHE 321 & CHE 321 L) in the junior year to prepare for the senior capstone research experience.
