Our objective is to provide the student with a solid foundation in each of these areas. Thus, each program is built upon a solid core of Chemistry, with additional science courses that provide the special knowledge needed in a particular program. Within a given program, each student has the opportunity to individualize an actual program of study to meet specific career goals. At Bradley, the student is able to interact on an individual basis with faculty members in well equipped classrooms and laboratories. The chief concern of Bradley faculty is the education of the student.
Chemistry classes are generally small in size.
Each lecture class is taught by a Ph.D. faculty member. Chemistry students are encouraged to consider participating in undergraduate research, industrial cooperative education assignments, assisting in the laboratory, and in the Chemistry Club. These experiences prepare Bradley chemistry majors well for either immediate employment upon graduation, or for further study at the graduate or professional level. In recent years, between 16 and 20 students have graduated per year from Bradley University in Chemistry or related areas. These graduates have experienced outstanding placement.
