Chemistry (ACS Approved)
Geneva’s chemistry major provides an American Chemical Society professionally-certified major that requires 46 major credits and a non-certified option that requires 31 credits (students use this to double major, usually with biology). Students will complete a variety of courses covering organic and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, quantitative analysis, physical chemistry and much more. Additionally, chemistry students gain extensive laboratory experience with additional opportunities for paid summer research.
