The Bachelor of Science (BS) in Chemistry prepares students for careers in industry and for entry to graduate school or professional schools in areas of chemistry, medicine, dentistry or law. The program includes solid emphasis on laboratory skills, scientific principles and mathematics in practical, industrially-oriented areas of chemistry. Students can specialize or explore a particular area of chemistry or prepare for an advanced degree by selecting from a wide range of technical electives. It is recommended that each student carry out an undergraduate research project with a faculty mentor. The faculty have expertise in areas such as energy, fuels, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, materials, environmental chemistry and pollution control. Research areas include analytical and environmental chemistry at industrial and microchip scales, synthesis of organic and inorganic materials in green solvents, computer-aided drug design, laser diagnostics of elementary processes, kinetics, thermochemistry and thermodynamics. Credit requirement for graduation is 125 credits. The curriculum as described below is for students entering NJIT as freshmen in the fall of 2000 or after that date. Students entering before that date may have a different program and should consult the department to learn which curriculum applies. Web Address: http://chemistry.njit.edu
