The student of chemistry examines, describes, and explores the composition, structure, and properties of substances and the changes they undergo. Students who participate in Chemistry classes learn a firm foundation in the principles of chemistry as well as sufficient experience to prepare the student for basic research, secondary school teaching, the pursuit of a career in medicine, or graduate study in the field.

REQUIREMENTS

CHEM 029,聽Accelerated General Chemistry,聽provides an alternative to the mainline version of general chemistry,聽Basic Principles of Chemistry (CHEM 014 and CHEM 015).聽

CHEM 029 is taught ONLY in the spring semester and requires the CHEM 029 placement diagnostic and permission of the instructor to enroll.

While there are no additional formal requirements, students who place into CHEM 029 generally have two (2) years of high school chemistry preparation.

TAKING THE TEST

The CHEM 029 placement diagnostic will be available starting on August 14, 2024, and will continue to be available until the class is filled. Students will need to register for the placement exam by emailing聽Professor Anna Wenzel ([email protected]).聽Professor Wenzel will provide further instructions for taking the online placement diagnostic.
