        Consult with a department adviser.
       
        Special Notes
  1.         Students graduating with a chemistry major (B.A.) must complete         30 credit hours in the major with at least a 2.0 in each course.
  2. Students interested in the Chemical Engineering Double Degree         Program should initiate contact with the Chemistry Department         as soon as possible.
  3. Since both calculus and physics are prerequisites for CHEM 451         and 452, students considering chemistry, biochemistry, medicine         and related fields are urged to start the cognate sequences as soon       as possible.
  4. Students may not double major in chemistry and biochemistry.
