Chemistry Minor

Requirements

The Chemistry minor requires a minimum of 21 credit hours in Chemistry. The minor includes 9 credit hours of core courses and 12 credit hours of 3 elective lecture and lab courses. All coursework must be completed with grades of “C” or higher. Since our chemistry program is approved by American Chemical Society (ACS), the 2003 ACS guidelines for a minor in chemistry require 200 hours of laboratory work beyond the first year of general chemistry (ACS).
