BS Chemistry

Caldwell’s chemistry program is designed to prepare students for immediate employment as a chemist, entry into the health profession, or admission to graduate/professional schools. Chemistry majors take a mix of required and elective courses in all areas of chemistry, as well as courses in physics and mathematics. 

Science courses at Caldwell are taught in a small classroom setting where each student has the opportunity to interact closely with their professor. All labs are taught by professors (not graduate teaching assistants), so that you can continue inquisitions outside of the classroom under the guidance of your professors. All students in the Department of Natural Sciences are given the opportunity to work on their own independent research project under faculty mentorship, giving you the opportunity to investigate a topic you are interested in and passionate about.
