Minor Requirements:18 Hours

** Elective hours will vary depending upon the minor selected. Most minors require 18 or more hours above the technical and/or BELL Core requirements. However, for this major, a minor in biology only requires 14 additional hours, and a minor in in mathematics only requires 10 additional hours.

Total Required for Degree: 128 Hours

* Students pursuing the Advanced Chemistry emphasis must take the MTH 1210-MTH 1220 sequence. Students pursuing the Pre-Health, Applied, or Chemistry Education emphasis may take either the MTH 1130-MTH 1210 sequence or the MTH 1210-MTH 1220 sequence.
