Bachelor of Science in chemistry

Worldwide employment of American-trained chemists has quickly increased in the past few years. Students are being presented with new opportunities to study in medical- and natural-chemistry-related fields. It is an exciting time for students to study chemistry, and the OU Chemistry Department gives students an opportunity to take part in stimulating research opportunities while receiving their degree. Currently OU students are working on important research such as drug discovery from natural organisms, improving antibiotics for drug resistant infections, improving the efficiency of solar panel cells, computational chemistry applications, and biomaterials for nanotechnology and nanomedicine. Incoming students will not only have established research to work on, but will also be encouraged to develop their own research goals.
