1 Chemistry 1 Chemistry Chairperson: James Kincaid, Ph.D. Department of Chemistry website ( The Marquette University Chemistry Department offers several areas of study with outstanding facilities and research opportunities for undergraduate students interested in pursuing careers related to chemistry or biochemistry. Three different majors are available: Chemistry, Biochemistry/Molecular Biology (jointly with Biological Sciences) and Chemistry for Education (for students enrolled in the College of Education or as a secondary major). A minor in chemistry is also available. The chemistry major is certified by the American Chemical Society, and through course and laboratory work we emphasize developing the whole scientist, in turn preparing students for many fields including research and development, chemistry, dental and medical careers, pharmacy, business, technical sales and marketing, law and education. In addition, together with the Graduate School of Management, the Department of Chemistry offers a five-year B.S./M.B.A. accelerated degree program. Major in Chemistry ACS-Certified Option: Consists of foundational and in-depth courses beyond the first year (44 credit hours). Courses in biochemistry, polymer chemistry and undergraduate research are required. In addition, background courses in mathematics (8 credit hours) and physics (8 credit hours) are required, as listed below. Required Chemistry Courses: CHEM 1013 General Chemistry 1 for Majors 4 or CHEM 1001 General Chemistry 1 CHEM 1014 General Chemistry 2 for Majors 4 or CHEM 1002 General Chemistry 2 CHEM 2113 Organic Chemistry for Majors 1 4 or CHEM 2111 Organic Chemistry 1 CHEM 2114 Organic Chemistry for Majors 2 4 or CHEM 2112 Organic Chemistry 2 CHEM 3210 Instrumental Analysis 4 CHEM 3320 Inorganic Synthesis 2 CHEM 3420 Physical Chemistry Laboratory 2 CHEM 4330 Inorganic Chemistry 3 CHEM 4433 Physical Chemistry 1 3 CHEM 4434 Physical Chemistry 2 3 CHEM 4530 Introduction to Biochemistry 3 or BIOL 4101 Biochemistry and the Molecular Basis of Biology CHEM 4630 Introduction to Polymer Science 3 CHEM 4956 Undergraduate Research in Chemistry 1-3 Total Credit Hours Additional Course Requirements for ACS-Certified Chemistry Majors: Mathematics Courses: MATH 1450 Calculus 1 4 MATH 1451 Calculus 2 4 Physics Courses: PHYS 1013 Classical and Modern Physics with Calculus 1 4 or PHYS 1003 General Physics with Introductory Calculus 1 PHYS 1014 Classical and Modern Physics with Calculus 2 4 or PHYS 1004 General Physics with Introductory Calculus 2 Total Credit Hours 16

Up to 6 hours can be counted towards the degree. ** CHEM 3420 Physical Chemistry Laboratory may be taken the junior year, concurrently with CHEM Chemistry B.S./M.S. Accelerated Degree Program The department offers a five-year combined bachelor s-master s program which enables students to earn both their bachelor of science and master of science degrees in chemistry in just five years. After completing the program, it is anticipated that students would have the potential for: Obtaining an industrial position in the chemical profession and related industries featuring greater responsibility and leadership than possible with a bachelor of science degree alone. Developing their academic skills and portfolio further, with the possibility to improve their chances of acceptance into doctoral, medical or other advanced degree programs. Immersion into an intensive research experience to provide guidance on their ability and aptitude for pursuing a doctor of philosophy degree in chemistry. Students are admitted following their junior year but are encouraged to begin undergraduate research (CHEM 4956 Undergraduate Research in Chemistry) during their junior year. Normally, a GPA of 2.75 in their Marquette University undergraduate science and math course work is required for admission. During the spring term of their fourth year, students are eligible to apply for a graduate assistantship for the fifth year, which would be awarded, if available, on the basis of merit as determined by the Graduate Committee (GC). Note that priority for academic year graduate assistantships is given to doctoral candidates. Chemistry B.S./M.B.A. Accelerated Degree Program The Department of Chemistry together with the Graduate School of Management offers an accelerated degree program which allows students to earn both their B.S. in Chemistry and master of business administration (M.B.A.) all within a five-year time period. During the first four years of the program, students complete both their coursework requirements for their Chemistry B.S. degree and the necessary prerequisite courses for the M.B.A. degree in the College of Business Administration. In addition, undergraduate students begin their M.B.A. graduate work in their senior year by taking two graduate level courses. To be considered for admission to the B.S./M.B.A. five-year program, applicants must formally apply to the Graduate School of Management during their junior year at Marquette University. For more detailed information and details of a typical five-year coursework plan, please refer to the Graduate School of Management Bulletin and contact the Department of Chemistry or the Graduate School of Management.
