The following are sample plans of course requirements to complete the Chemistry and Biochemistry major in four years or eight semesters.
Each student’s experience will vary slightly, as these plans do not include transfer work or credit for prior learning (such as Advanced Placement-AP).
Math, English, and Reading placement is primarily determined by high school performance and confirmed by on-site assessment.

**Eight (8) semester hours from any BIO or CHM numbered 280+ (excludes cooperative and internship coursework).
**student is required to complete a total of ten (10) semester hours of CHM 390 and will adjust elective semester hours as needed in these terms to reach the minimum of 120 semester hours for degree.
