Bachelor of Science in Chemistry - Pre-Medicine Emphasis

From molecules to metals to medicines, chemistry plays a part in everything engineered by humans. Chemists understand the properties of the materials from which products are made, they analyze the complex ingredients that comprise the human body, and they develop materials for use in space. Chemistry is the study of elements, the compounds they form, and the reactions they undergo. With a chemistry degree, you can help clean up ocean oil spills, study hydrogen-powered transit, develop new medications, find genetic codes, and create “green” cleaning products, or make stronger, more durable and more life-like prostheses. Where do chemists work: Graduates in chemistry have endless career possibilities, from developing new materials for space shuttles at NASA to quality assurance testing of everyday consumer products. Chemists have taken jobs in agricultural industries, pharmaceutical companies, oil and petroleum companies, and forensics. Chemists tackle a broad range of challenges, from environmental cleanup and pollution prevention to creating the materials that will take humans to Mars. A bachelor’s degree in chemistry will provide many career possibilities. It has been called the central science because it occupies a pivotal place in many disciplines. As such it serves as the foundation for many other professions such as medicine, biotechnology, ceramics, chemical engineering, polymers, materials, metallurgy and environmental sciences. This program is focused on Pre-Medicine. Along with this specialization you can choose following specializations also: Biochemistry Polymer & Coatings Science
