The
Chemistry Concentration
The chemistry concentration provides a comprehensive conceptual overview
of the chemical sciences while affording the student significant flexibility
to choose courses in biological chemistry and various aspects of organic,
materials and physical chemistry,. The cornerstones of the concentration
in chemistry are the laboratory experience and the scholarly paper that
will be written under the direction of a faculty mentor. In addition to
CLFS 710, or the chemistry equivalent, and
the scholarly paper student must take at least 15 credit hours from the
courses listed below. Additional courses in the 30-credit program may
be chosen from that list or from those in the biology concentration. The
concentration area in chemistry requires that a student be admitted either
by passing the Chemistry Concentration Admission
Exam or by earning an acceptable grade in CLFS 520, Concepts of Modern
Chemistry.

The Biology Concentration
The biology concentration
provides a comprehensive conceptual overview of the biological sciences
while affording the student significant flexibility to choose courses
in genetics, molecular biology, evolution, etc. The cornerstones of the
concentration in biology are the laboratory experience (CLFS 710) and
the scholarly paper that will be written under the direction of a faculty
mentor. In addition to CLFS 710 (or the equivalent)
and the scholarly paper, students must take at least 15 credit hours from
the courses listed below. Additional courses in the 30 credit program
may be chosen from that list or from those in the chemistry concentration
The concentration in biology requires that a student be admitted either
