The Bachelor of Science (BS) degree provides an intensive coverage of the field for the student who desires to become a professional chemist. The BS program prepares the student for entry into graduate programs in Chemistry leading to advanced degrees or for direct entry into the job market at the baccalaureate level. Many of the CWRU BS Chemistry majors are highly recruited by the top national PhD graduate programs. The Department of Chemistry is part of the College of Arts and Sciences at Case Western Reserve University.
As common to all degree programs within the college, the BS degree candidates must fulfill 39 credits of coursework for the SAGES requirements. An additional 53-54 credit hours must be accumulated in chemistry courses. Additional credits of math and science courses must also be taken. The remaining credits are available for electives to allow the student to either specialize in areas of interest or predefined “tracks” of coursework that specialize in select subareas of chemistry. The BS degree in chemistry at CWRU meets all of the requirements for being an American Chemical Society (ACS) certified degree.
