This program is designed for well-qualified students who wish to acquire an unusually strong foundation in chemistry.
Honors classes differ significantly in the depth and breadth of subject matter.
Admission to the honors program is through superior performance on a departmental placement examination given each Fall. Enrollments are limited to ensure strong faculty-student interaction. Most students completing the program enter graduate or professional school. Participants are expected to complete the requirements for a B.S. in Chemistry or a B.S. in Biochemistry . Equivalent courses in regular sections can also be taken by students in the Honors Program.
