化学理学学士

新帕尔茨市的化学系提供本科和硕士学位课程。共有3个获得文科学位的本科课程：普通化学专业，美国化学学会（ACS）批准的化学专业和以生物化学为重点的化学专业。获得ACS批准的学位的学生有资格获得工业或政府的化学家。ACS批准的计划还为学生做好研究生学习和医学，牙科和兽医学专业培训的准备。通过课程设置，化学专业的学生可以在多个化学领域获得广泛的背景。生物化学重点课程是针对对生物化学或与健康相关的科学感兴趣且需要大量化学背景的学生而设计的。该计划为卫生专业培训以及临床化学，生理学和药物化学的研究生学习提供了出色的
The Department of Chemistry at New Paltz offers both undergraduate and masters degree programs. Three undergraduate programs leading to liberal arts degrees are available: the general chemistry major, the American Chemical Society (ACS)-approved chemistry major, and the chemistry major with biochemistry emphasis.A student who obtains an ACS-approved degree is eligible for employment as a chemist in industry or government. The ACS-approved program also prepares students for graduate study and for professional training in medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine. Course offerings allow chemistry majors to obtain a broad background in several areas of chemistry.The biochemistry emphasis is designed for the student interested in biochemistry or health-related sciences requiring a substantial background in chemistry. This program provides excellent preparation for health professional training, as well as for graduate study in clinical chemistry, physiology, and medicinal chemistry. Students take core courses in chemistry and biology and complete the year-long biochemistry sequence.The general chemistry major requires fewer advanced courses than the ACS approved program. However, students take, with advisement, the same core courses that provide theoretical and hands-on education in the major areas of chemistry. Students are able to combine a chemistry major with prelaw, business, or teaching programs. This degree with selected courses in biology can prepare students for medical school entrance requirements. Preparation for a non-laboratory career in chemistry could include management or marketing courses offered by the business program at New Paltz.
