The chemistry minor represents a valuable complementary field of study especially for students majoring in biology, geology, criminal justice and physics or experimental psychology. It is also possible that students in non-scientific areas of the liberal arts will find this minor a very rewarding and valuable part of their general education.  Special Note: Students must maintain an average grade of 2.0 in courses counted toward the minor.

All courses are 3 credits unless noted. Credits are divided as follows:
