The Department of Chemistry offers two degree programs: the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degrees. A total of 124 hours is required to complete each degree program. Our chemistry degree programs provide an excellent foundation for career paths in graduate school, teaching, medicine, pharmacy, dental, and numerous industry positions.
The B.S. degree program offers three additional concentrations: the American Chemical Society (ACS) concentration, the Pre-Medical concentration, and the Pre-Pharmacy concentration. The ACS concentration is designed to prepare graduates for a career in industry or to further their education through graduate studies. The American Chemical Society (ACS) has continually approved the department and its curriculum since 1941, certifying degrees earned by completing the B.S. degree with the ACS concentration. The Pre-Medical concentration is intended to aid students in meeting medical school pre-requisites. This concentration combines required biology courses with specific chemistry courses designed to prepare students for the rigors of medical schools, dental schools, or other professional schools. Our Pre-Medical concentration is based on the pre-requisites required by the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC). The Pre-Pharmacy concentration is designed to meet the pre-requisites for the School of Pharmacy at the University of Mississippi. These requirements mirror those of other pharmacy schools, but students who wish to attend other pharmacy schools should communicate this information to their advisor.
The B.A. degree program has a stronger liberal arts emphasis and could serve as a preparation for a secondary teaching career, chemical sales, or further study at a professional school.
The Department of Chemistry also offers a M.S. (non-thesis and thesis) and Ph.D. in Chemistry (see the Graduate Catalog for description of programs and requirements for more information on these advanced degrees).
Chemistry Minor Requirements
Students in other majors may earn a minor in Chemistry by achieving at least a 2.00 average in a total of 22 hours of chemistry (CH) courses with 14 of the hours in upper-division courses (3000-4000 level), and a minimum of 11 of the total hours completed at MSU. Students interested in a chemistry minor should contact the Academic Coordinator.
