化学文科学士学位

艺术与科学学院的文学士学位课程不是专业课程，可以由不打算在化学或相关科学领域从事研究生工作但希望拥有比化学辅修课程更强大的化学背景的学生选出程序。BA课程还提供与健康相关的化学，环境化学，地球化学或化学管理选项的有用组合。学生可能会在大三时从BS转换为BA计划，反之亦然，因为两者的基本要求相同。正在进行文学学士学位课程并在近期决定就读化学，生物化学或相关科学的研究生的学生，应与部门顾问之一交谈，讨论可选的课程材料，这将为他们准备研究生课程做好准备。
The B.A. program in the College of Arts and Sciences is not a pre-professional program and may be elected by students who do not plan to do graduate work in chemistry or allied science but wish a stronger background in chemistry than is provided in the chemistry minor program. The B.A. program also affords a useful tie-in with health-related chemistry, environmental chemistry, geochemistry or chemistry management options. Students may transfer from the B.S. to B.A. programs or vice-versa as late as the junior year, since basic requirements are the same for the two. Students who are in the B.A. program and make a late decision to attend graduate school in chemistry, biochemistry, or allied science should speak to one of the department advisors to discuss optional course material which will prepare them for graduate course work.
