Course summary
The Chemical Education major offers an excellent preparation for teaching physical science in secondary schools, including chemistry, physics, earth science, biology, and mathematics. The chemical education program is sufficiently intensive that students with this degree should be admissible as graduate students in chemistry, biochemistry, and teacher education programs at most universities.
Program modules
General chemistry including laboratory (Chem. 6A-6C or 6AH-6CH, and 6BL, or equivalent), Calculus (Math. 20A-20D, or equivalent), Calculus-based physics including laboratory (Phys. 2A-2B and 2D or equivalent, and either 2BL, 2CL or 2DL. Phys. 2CL is recommended and is accessible without Phys. 2C), Biology (BILD1). Three quarters of organic chemistry (Chem. 140A-C or 141A-C), Two quarters of physical chemistry (Chem. 126-127 recommended; 131-133 acceptable), One quarter of inorganic chemistry (Chem. 120A), One quarter of biochemistry (Chem. 114A), Six laboratory courses (Chem. 100A, 143AM or 143A, 143B, 105A, and two of the following: 100B, 105B, 112A, 112B, 123, 143C, or 143D).
