The Chemistry Department offers a broad selection of tracks for students seeking careers in chemistry and the physical sciences. The Bachelor of Science in chemistry requires a minimum of 120 credits for graduation. Chemistry majors must have at least a C average in the math and science courses required by the major. Transfer students majoring in chemistry are required to complete at least 15 hours in chemistry at Salisbury University. With the proper selection of electives, chemistry major can be used for entry into the professional programs of dentistry, medicine, veterinary medicine, pharmacy or patent law. The Department of Chemistry offers different tracks leading to a B.S. in chemistry, including two tracks that are certified by the American Chemical Society (ACS). These tracks foster development and expression of rational thought and help prepare students for admission to Ph.D. programs in chemistry, related professional fields (such as medicine and pharmacy), and positions in the chemical and related industries. We have seven major tracks that lead to the B.S. chemistry chemistry ACS-certified chemistry pre-health professional biochemistry biochemistry-ACS certified accelerated pharmacy* dual degree in chemical engineering (3-2 program) chemistry/teacher certification If accepted to the University of Maryland-Baltimore School of Pharmacy, the accelerated pharmacy track permits the student to complete only three years at Salisbury University and earn a B.S. in chemistry from SU after successful completion of one year of chemistry-related courses at the pharmacy school. Traditional Chemistry Track This is a baccalaureate track designed for direct entry into the chemistry profession. American Chemical Society Chemistry Track The ACS-certified degree is widely recognized in the chemistry profession as a standard of excellence. This track is designed for motivated students with good scholastic records who intend to enter graduate programs in chemistry or closely related fields. Biochemistry Track The biochemistry track is designed for students interested in developing a deeper understanding of biochemical principles and engaging in more advanced biochemistry laboratory experiences. This track provides a diversified background for postgraduate health-related programs, such as dentistry, medicine or veterinary medicine. When coordinated properly, completion of this track satisfies the requirements of most medical schools. American Chemical Society Biochemistry Track The ACS-certified chemistry degree/biochemistry track is designed for highly motivated chemistry majors seeking a curriculum emphasizing biochemistry. This option is well suited for students who intend to enter graduate programs in biochemistry or closely related fields. When coordinated properly, completion of this track satisfies the requirements of most medical schools. Teacher Certification The teacher certification track is a Maryland State Department of Education-approved teacher education program, which certifies students to teach chemistry in the secondary schools. Dual Degree Chemical Engineering Transfer Track This track provides a student an opportunity to earn both a degree in chemistry from SU and an engineering degree from the University of Maryland College Park (UMCP). In this track, typically students attend SU for three years and UMCP for two years (likely including the summer before the first fall semester). While at SU, the student completes the chemistry core as well as additional courses identified here.
