BA in Chemistry

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

Mills College

Program Overview

Chemistry is the study of matter: its structure, composition, physical properties, and reactivity. Education in chemistry prepares our students for work as chemists in industrial or government laboratories, or for postgraduate training in a variety of fields such as chemistry, medicine, dentistry, pharmacology, toxicology, and veterinary medicine. The combination of a chemistry major and a computer science minor provides a strong background for work or further study in the new field of cheminformatics. A chemistry major also provides excellent preparation for becoming a science teacher in primary or secondary schools. Chemistry occupies such a central position among the natural sciences that it is essential training for many other disciplines. For example, it provides the foundation for biochemistry, molecular biology, material science, environmental science, and geology.
