Overview
Chemistry is the study of material on the molecular level: how molecules are structured, how they react with each other and under what conditions, how can they be modified and how each modification affects physical properties. There is nothing that chemistry does not affect — from food to medicine, from pollution control to paint formulation, from permanent-press clothes to kitchen countertops. Most of the work of chemistry is done in research, applications or quality-control laboratories.
Many who study chemistry do so as preparation for a career in medicine or pharmacology.
UC Clermont's Chemistry associate degree (AS) program is designed so that students may earn an associate degree in science and transfer into the third year of the bachelor of science (BS) program at the University of Cincinnati's College of Arts and Sciences (A&S), provided all other admission requirements of that college are met.
The AS chemistry program is a rigorous program of study intended for students seeking careers as professional chemists, often with an advanced degree in chemistry.
Career
Graduates with a bachelor's degree in this major are employed as:
chemists in the manufacturing industry and state, local or federal governments
chemistry teachers
industrial research and development scientists
forensic scientists
physicians and health care professionals
Many of the students who complete the BS in chemistry program go on to graduate schools, primarily into doctoral programs. Others go to professional schools, including medicine, pharmacy and dentistry.
