Chemistry
The Chemistry area of study is designed for students planning to transfer to a senior college or university for completion of a baccalaureate degree. During the first two years, students concentrate on building a strong foundation in the sciences and mathematics. The chemistry curriculum is sufficiently flexible to meet the needs of students with the following goals: (1) industrial research and development, (2) environmental research, (3) liberal arts background for medical and allied health professions, (4) secondary teaching of chemistry, or (5) chemical engineering.
