Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry - Secondary Education Emphasis Area

Missouri University of Science and Technology

S&T offers both Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees for undergraduate chemistry students. The ACS Committee on Professional Training (CPT) reviewed the department’s 2021 periodic report, determined that the program meets all requirements in the ACS guidelines, and recommended continuation of ACS approval of the B.S. program. Thus, the department can continue to provide certificates to its graduates. The department’s next periodic report is due in 2027.The Bachelor of Arts degree offers a broad liberal arts education and allows the chemistry major to choose a curriculum to focus on individual career goals. Additionally, one may choose to follow the ''Secondary Education emphasis'' curriculum that has been designed for students interested in teaching at the secondary education level. The Department of Chemistry is working closely with the Department of Education to bring the best of modern pedagogy to STEM education and vice versa. This program is approved by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Students intending to teach in other states are responsible for investigating the reciprocity agreement of that state agency.
