BA/BS in Chemistry

The B.S. in Chemistry combines theory with laboratory practice, preparing students to explain scientific ideas well. Chemistry touches medicine, industry and daily life, so graduates can work in many professional settings. The program starts with general chemistry, including atomic and molecular structure, stoichiometry and reactions, and encourages careful, analytical and ethical thinking. The degree is taught on campus, and possible careers include chemist or materials scientist. In total the curriculum comes to 120 credit hours, and students complete it on the Park campus. Park presents the cost as comparable to public universities, and prospective students can request information or start an application directly from the program page. Graduates leave with career-oriented preparation that supports direct entry into the workforce or later study toward a higher credential.
