Introductory Chemistry, CHM 101

Introductory Chemistry explores the experimental and theoretical concepts of general chemistry while emphasizing scientific reasoning, critical and analytical thinking. The course is designed for those planning to major in a non-stem field (e.g., business major).

General Chemistry, CHM 111/CHM 112

General Chemistry explores the fundamental laws, theories, and mathematical concepts of chemistry. Since the course is designed for stem majors to-be, students are expected to have a strong background in mathematics is required in addition to having completed high school chemistry. A lab component is included.

Honors Chemistry

Non-college credit course (i.e., high school credit only) provides students with a detailed understanding of the interaction between matter and energy. The interaction is investigated using experimentation, mathematical reasoning, and problem solving.
