The chemistry minor combines a sequential introduction to basic concepts in chemistry with additional experience practicing chemistry in the laboratory setting, and with the opportunity to study a specific subfield of chemistry in greater depth.

Required courses: 5 courses in chemistry that must include the core introductory sequence: 111, 222, and 224 (or 118 and 222) and one additional course with a laboratory component (223, 332, 326, 336 or 346). The remaining courses to fulfill the 5 course requirement may be chosen from CHM courses at the 300 level (326, 336, 346, 331, 332, 363, 321, 324, 328, 337, 338, 357, 369, 395), BCH 252, or BCH 352.
