Become a contributor for free to openly demonstrate student outcomes, industry alignment & eligibility criteria.

Chemistry is the study of matter and substances in order to understand, explain, and predict how substances change. The BA degree is designed for those students who desire a more general education than that provided by the BS degree, but nonetheless are seeking a degree in chemistry. Most chemistry majors continue their education in graduate school or professional school. Many of our graduates are now physicians or have teaching and research careers at universities and colleges.

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: proficient (Level 3)(based on Bachelor's Degree)

  • Graduate-level lectures on advanced topics such as organic synthesis mechanisms and instrumental analysis — design and deliver autonomously with scholarly depth in a research-intensive university environment.
  • Laboratory safety culture and compliance standards — establish, enforce, and continuously improve across multiple courses and research settings within a postsecondary chemistry department.
  • Complex student assessments including research papers, original lab investigations, and comprehensive examinations — evaluate with nuanced judgment and provide developmental written feedback.
  • Graduate research work and thesis-related laboratory activities — supervise independently, guiding experimental design and data interpretation across extended project timelines.
  • Non-routine instructional challenges such as academic integrity issues or remediation needs — diagnose and resolve using critical thinking and institutional resources.
  • Full course portfolios including syllabi, assignments, and assessment instruments — develop from scratch and refine based on learning outcomes analysis and disciplinary standards.
  • Undergraduate and graduate internship and research placements — coordinate, monitor, and assess student progress in collaboration with external partners and departmental advisors.
  • Analytical and scientific software platforms used in chemistry instruction — integrate into laboratory curricula to build students' computational and data-analysis competencies.
  • Inductive and deductive reasoning across chemistry, mathematics, and physics domains — apply to design problem-solving curricula that develop students' higher-order scientific thinking.
  • Comprehensive student records and performance data — maintain and analyze to identify achievement patterns and inform evidence-based course redesign at the departmental level.
