A Bachelor’s in Chemistry is a versatile degree. With in-depth understanding in analytical, organic, inorganic and physical chemistry, you will have the opportunity to pursue careers in a variety of research domains. As a chemist, you may work on new drug designs, developing novel plastics, in addition to possibly working in jobs related to all fields of chemistry.
A degree in chemistry, particularly with a biochemistry option, is often used as an entry point into professional schools such a pharmacology, medicine and dentistry. A minor in chemistry is also available.
