Supporting courses for the major are Physics 221, 222 and Mathematics 131, 132. Biology 207 and 208 are strongly recommended. Students wishing to pursue further study in Chemistry are encouraged to take additional courses in Biology, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, and Foreign Language (preferably German or French).
A minor in Chemistry consists of Chemistry 161, 162, 305, 306, 308, 351, and six (6) credits in Chemistry numbered 340 and above; Physics 221, 222; Mathematics 131, 132.
The Department of Chemistry offers three courses that satisfy Bridgewater College's general education requirement for Physical Science. Chemistry 102, Earth and its Physical Resources, is for the student majoring in a non-science area. Chemistry 125, Fundamentals of Inorganic Chemistry, is for the health science and nutrition majors. Chemistry 161, General Chemistry, is for the science majors.
Majors in any non-science department can take and can benefit from Chemistry 125 or 161. Math 110 is a prerequisite or co-requisite for any courses numbered 120 or above. Math 132 is a prerequisite for any course numbered 330 or above (except Biochemistry). |
