BA/BS in Chemistry

The Chemistry B.S. is an 81-unit major made up of a 76-unit core and a short elective component. The core opens with 38 lower division units, including two five-unit general chemistry courses. Students also choose five upper division elective units with adviser approval from a list that includes honors studies, special topics, a laboratory course and advanced organic chemistry. Advanced analytical chemistry courses used for the core cannot also count as electives. Transfer students entering at the upper division level can follow a recommended preparation guide and a learning outcomes roadmap.
