Normally, a minimum of two chemistry courses will be taken each year. A strong high school preparation in natural science and mathematics is expected of potential chemistry majors. The 54-credit chemistry major consists of the following classes:

• General Chemistry I
• General Chemistry II
• Quantitative Analysis I
• Organic Chemistry I
• Organic Chemistry II
• Physical Chemistry I
• Instrumental Analysis
• Research in Chemistry
• College Physics I
• College Physics II
• Calculus I
• Calculus II
