Introduction

Morehouse chemistry students apply central scientific methods to master elements.

Chemistry students receive rigorous preparation for the pursuit of graduate studies in chemistry or careers as professional chemists. Each student is exposed to considerable biology, physics, and mathematics to prepare them for today’s technological marketplace, where interdisciplinary inquiry is essential. As a result, many chemistry majors complete the requirements for a minor in mathematics, biology, or physics as well.

The Morehouse College program also provides quality service courses for majors in related life and physical science programs. These service courses bear no distinction from the program’s courses for majors.
