Chemistry, BA

Binghamton University · Vestal, NY

A checklist is the list of requirements to complete this program and receive the award, as the college publishes it in its catalog. It is the same for everyone. It does not say what you have completed; that comes from applying your own record.

                        5 items
                        1. A GPA of 2.0 or better is the necessary average for all courses used to satisfy the requirements of a chemistry major, and a grade of C- or better is necessary for a chemistry course to satisfy the requirements of a chemistry major. Among courses used for the chemistry degree, no more than two with a grade of P may be included. However, CHEM 221, 231, 341, 351/361, and 496 are foundation courses that cannot be taken as Pass/Fail. No more than 12 credits of CHEM 397 and 497/498 may be used to satisfy the major, and no more than four credits of CHEM 397 may be used to satisfy the major.

                        2. CHEM 391
                          Teaching Practicum, does not count toward the chemistry major.
                          Not resolved to a course
                        3. Residency Requirement: Students must take CHEM 496 and at least six other chemistry courses in the major, including at least four upper-level chemistry courses (numbered 300+), while in residence at Binghamton University.
                          Not resolved to a course
                        4. Major/Minor Restriction: Students may not double major or minor in Biochemistry and Integrative Neuroscience due to significant overlap in the programs.
                          Not resolved to a course
                        5. The following courses are required for the chemistry major: MATH 224 and introductory chemistry. If students are not placed into MATH 224, Math 223, and, if needed, MATH 108 are also required to complete the major. If students are not placed into introductory chemistry, CHEM 100 is also required to complete the major.
