Minors
Minor in Chemistry
A minor in chemistry consists of five courses, including ttwo 100-level courses: (111 or 113 and 112 or 114); one or two 200-level courses; and one or two 300-level courses.
Minors can be designed to meet the special interests of a variety of students. An environmental interest would be met by the CHEM 111 or 113, 112, 226, 327, and 550 (WIT) sequence; math students could elect CHEM 112, 113, 226, 332, and 348; biologists could easily obtain a chemistry minor by electing CHEM 111 or 113, 114, 225, 226, and 345.
Students in majors constructed from the offerings of two departments (biochemistry, environmental science) do not obtain a minor in either department. No more than one course in the minor should be taken pass/fail.
Minor in Physics of Materials
This minor is offered jointly by the Departments of Physics and Chemistry. Please see the description under Physics.
