Must include a laboratory. CHEM 499 Senior Thesis by department approval. Students fulfilling the AUCC 4C requirement with CHEM 499 must write a thesis and present it to the department. Select additional Advanced Science Electives courses (upperdivision, 00- to 400-level) to total at least 10 credits when combined with the choice of BC 51 or BC 401 in the junior year. Select enough elective credits to bring the program total to a minimum of 120 credits, of which at least 42 must be upper-division (00- to 400-level). Major Completion Map Distinctive Requirements for Degree Program: TO PREPARE FOR FIRST SEMESTER: The curriculum for the Chemistry major - ACS Certified concentration assumes students enter college prepared to take calculus. Entering students who are not prepared to take calculus will need to fulfill pre-calculus requirements in the first semester. CHEM 111 requires Algebra II as a prerequisite (this prerequisite is met by having Algebra II by test credit, transfer credit, or placement out of MATH 117 and MATH 118 on Math Placement Exam). 4 4
