Chemistry majors develop critical thinking and observation skills, while learning lab techniques.
The Chemistry major, offered in the Department of Chemistry and Physical Sciences, provides students a solid grounding in organic and inorganic chemistry and practical experience with modern instrumentation.
Our Chemistry major is approved by the American Chemical Society.
Career Potential:
Students graduating with a chemistry degree have multiple career options. It's an excellent major for students interested in a career as a chemist in a wide range of industries or, with additional graduate work, in health-related fields such as PA (physician assistant), medicine, pharmacy, optometry, physical therapy, or medical technology.
Hands-On Learning:
Under the guidance of faculty, chemistry students at the Mount can participate in original chemistry research. Many research students are co-authors on published chemistry research papers and some present their work at regional professional meetings.
Our extensive cooperative education opportunities provide real-life experiences in industrial settings and research labs in greater Cincinnati. These co-op positions have often led to full-time positions for our students.
