About the course

Understand what makes stain removers work. Make our environments more livable through the mitigation of pollutants. From the everyday to the exceptional, chemistry has a place in almost every aspect of our lives. The chemistry major provides you with the theoretical knowledge and applied laboratory skills necessary to be successful in industry, academia or professional programs. You take introductory coursework in five chemistry subdisciplines (analytical, inorganic, physical, organic and biochemistry), followed by senior-level coursework in a diverse array of modern and collaborative chemistry fields, including industrial, environmental, geological, green, forensic, materials, and medicinal chemistry. Theoretical knowledge is combined with a robust and practical laboratory program, providing you with relevant, hands-on skills and techniques used in modern academic and industrial settings. The requirement of either independent research or an industrial internship solidifies the practical learning experience for our students ensuring success upon graduation. The highly practical chemistry major provides the courses you need to register for your designation as professional chemist (P.Chem.), preparing you to find a job in a variety of sectors, including oil and gas, food sciences, forensics, chemical testing, pharmaceutical, environmental protection, cosmetics production and much more.
