FOR CHEMISTRY MAJORS

The following is one possible course sequence for a chemistry major with a biochemistry concentration to complete the Neuroscience minor (minor approved courses in red).  A chemistry major has the flexibility of taking either the "molecular/cellular" (e.g., biology) or "systems" (e.g., psychology) tracks to fulfill upper-level requirements for the minor.  Since the current example is for a biochemistry concentration chemistry student,  the sequence below emphasizes the molecular/cellular track in neuroscience study.  Other possible courses and/or sequences may also fulfill both the major and minor; consult with your advisor or catalog for remaining requirements for the chemistry major, and the director of the Neuroscience program for further options for fulfilling the minor.

Freshman Year

Fall                                    Spring

CHEM 111 & 132            BIOL 116

                                           MATH 191

Sophomore Year

MATH 192                        CHEM 236

                                           BIOL 338

Junior Year

Fall                                    Spring

BIOL 344                          CHEM 436*¹

* May have pre-requisites unrelated to minor

Senior Year

Fall                                    Spring

¹This course fulfills the minimum 9 hrs at the 300-level or above

for the minor and is useful for the biochemistry concentration.

However, other courses may be used to fulfill this requirement for

the minor.  If a student is interested in the "systems" track of

the minor (e.g., psychology), then Psyc 101 and 216 should be

taken sometime during the freshman and sophomore years, with

electives of Psyc 321 and/or Psyc 322 in later years.
