Scores from this examination will not be included in the calculation of GPA for academic standing. The performance on this exam will be noted on the student’s transcript. PIRATE TIPS 1. Some majors require specific foundations curriculum courses. Check catalog for appropriate courses. 2. Certain honors & interdisciplinary courses may also be used to satisfy foundations curriculum requirements. Refer to the undergraduate catalog for appropriate courses for your major. 3. Hours for MATH 0001, MATH 0045, READ 1032, READ 1033, and READ 1034 do not count toward graduation. 4. The BS degree in chemistry is the appropriate program for students considering advanced degree programs in chemistry, biochemistry, and other related fields or a professional career in chemistry. Graduates of this program meet certification requirements of the American Chemical Society. Students are strongly encouraged to pursue undergraduate research with a faculty member 5. Chemistry Majors are required to earn a minimum grade of C in each of the following courses: CHEM 1150, 1151, 1160, 1161, and MATH 1065.
