Because of its place among the sciences, chemistry is inherently interdisciplinary and attracts students to its study from a broad range of related interests.
The chemistry major at Franklin & Marshall College is led by faculty committed to helping the student “learn how to learn.” In addition to acquiring an understanding of the basic concepts of chemistry, majors hone the skills necessary for critical and analytical thinking and develop their ability to communicate observations and discoveries through the printed and spoken word.
