Notes:
- For an explanation of why General Education courses are included in this Program, please refer to the Section on General Education for an explanation of its Purpose and Requirements.
- This plan assumes the student is eligible to enroll in College Level Courses (designated as 100 +, e.g., ENG 101 College Composition I, HST 101 World Civilization I, MTH 100 Intro. to College Mathematics). Placement results will determine College Level Readiness in English and Mathematics.
- No grade of "D" is acceptable in CHM, MTH or PHY courses.
Upon completion of this program, graduates will be able to:
- Utilize critical thinking and problem solving skills, including the scientific method and method of scientific conversion;
- Understand fundamental concepts of inorganic chemistry, including the chemical laws of nature, solutions, acids & bases, kinetics, equilibrium, and thermochemistry, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry;
- Demonstrate mastery of fundamental concepts of organic chemistry, including functional groups, reactions, syntheses, and mechanisms;
- Perform chemical experiments in a safe and scientific manner, using proper scientific and laboratory safety procedures.
