Grades earned will be part of your permanent record at the University of Delaware and will appear on an official transcript. Applying as early as possible will make it much more likely that you won't be disappointed because a class is closed. One year of high school chemistry is required and a year of biology is recommended. The focus is on matter, the changes that matter undergoes, and the laws governing these changes. Special emphasis is placed on atomic and molecular structure, chemical bonding, equilibria, and energy relationships and how these principles relate to real-life situations.
Laboratories meet three times a week for three hours each day.
One year of high school chemistry with a grade of B or higher is required. Facility with simple algebra, including simultaneous equations, is assumed. It covers principles of computer science applied using the C programming language. By the end of this course students should develop a general knowledge of computer system components and the ability to harness their power. Logical thinking, attention to detail, and math skills are very important for successful algorithm design and program implementation.
