Description
Fundamental knowledge of chemistry is relevant in a variety of careers, and a minor in chemistry is a good complement to many majors. For Business majors there are opportunities to become entrepreneurs or work with tech start-up companies using applications of chemistry such as development of new materials for energy, electronics, buildings, and medical implants. Other prime business opportunities include discoveries of cures for diseases, new pharmaceuticals and natural medicines. Criminology majors gain hands-on experience with chemistry techniques and instrumentation used in crime scene investigation and forensic analysis. Education students complete coursework for an additional area of teacher certification. Mathematics and Computer Science majors apply chemistry to molecular modeling, computational chemistry, drug discovery and informatics. Pre-Law students gain understanding of chemicals and processes important in Patent Law. Psychology majors apply chemistry to understanding the nervous system, brain, and effects of drugs. Biology majors broaden and deepen their knowledge of the fundamental topics inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, analytical chemistry, and physical chemistry.
