BA/BS in Chemistry

The Chemistry major prepares students to bring analysis, math, and communication abilities to questions ranging from tiny particles up to living cells. The curriculum links theory to laboratory practice. Classes and labs take place in the university's science and pharmacy building, which offers instruments including magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry equipment. A chemistry degree leads to work in pharmaceuticals, polymers, coatings, and related industries, as well as to graduate study in the sciences, medicine, healthcare, or veterinary science. Internships and study abroad are available. This program is offered through the College of Arts and Sciences at Western New England University. Prospective students can request information or begin an application through the university website, and the admissions office can explain how the program fits individual academic and career goals.
