In the first year, students in Program A should complete Chemistry 102a–102b and 104a–104b, or 218a–218b and 219a–219b, foreign language (recommended but not required), and Math 150a-150b or a higher-level calculus sequence; in the second year 220a–220b and 219a–219b; in the third year 210 and 212a, 230, 236; and in the third and fourth years 7 additional hours of chemistry at the 200- or 300-level. Up to three hours of 282a–282b may be counted toward the 27 hours. Biological Sciences 220 (Biochemistry I) is acceptable as additional chemistry in Program A. Credit is given for Chemistry 102b/104b but not for 102a/104a.
Mathematics 150a–150b is the minimum mathematics requirement for Chemistry A majors.
