Chemistry Minor

Total Credits - 19-24

• CHEM 131 - General Chemistry I Credits: 4
• CHEM 132 - General Chemistry II Credits: 4
• CHEM 231 - Organic Chemistry I Credits: 3
• CHEM 241 - Organic Chemistry Laboratory I Credits: 1
• 7 or 8 credits of CHEM/BCHM courses that apply towards a major in chemistry or biochemistry. Students who take CHEM 330 (4 Cr) need to earn at least 3 additional upper division CHEM/BCHM credits. Students who do not take CHEM 330, need to earn 8 CHEM/BCHM credits beyond those listed above. CHEM 195 , CHEM 295 , and CHEM 495  do not meet this requirement.
• The Chemistry Minor must include two semesters of hands-on laboratory experience setting beyond General Chemistry. This is normally met through courses with lab components that are offered at Andrews. Transfer students whose chemistry coursework did not include hands-on laboratory work would need to have additional coursework. A lab syllabus and lab notebook should be provided for petitions.

Student Learning Outcomes

At the end of the program, students should be able to:

• Demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of the identification and transformation of matter.
• Practice competency in common lab activities and instrumentation; use safe laboratory and waste management practices; understand impact of chemical activities on environment.
