*At least 3 hours of chemistry research (CHEM 291) are required for the B.S. Although 1-4 hours of CHEM 291 can be taken in a semester, students usually take 1-2 h over 2-3 semesters to complete this requirement.
¶One elective course of advanced (200 level and above) chemistry is required for the B.S.
CHEM 031/032 can be substituted for CHEM 035/036
CHEM 141/142 can be substituted for CHEM 143/144
MATH 121 can be substituted for CHEM 167

NOTES:
*Either CHEM 161 or CHEM 162 is required
CE 252 or CE 253 is required for the major. These courses are offered every year or every other year. They should be taken as early as possible (e.g. beginning in the spring semester of the 2nd year) to be sure of availability.
An additional course (besides CE 252 or CE 253) is required in either Civil & Environmental Engr or Geology from the following list: CE 150, CE 252, CE 253, GEOL 233, GEOL 234, GEOL 235, or GEOL 255
