A combined major in chemistry requires seven upper-division courses, in addition to senior thesis. This reduces the load of a regular chemistry major by two courses. The seven courses must include: CHEM 116L KS -Organic Chemistry and CHEM 117L KS -Organic Chemistry, at least one semester of Physical Chemistry, CHEM 121 KS -Ppls Phys Chem: Thermochemistry or CHEM 122 KS -Ppls Phys Chem: Quantum Chem, at least one semester of Advanced Laboratory (either CHEM 126L KS or CHEM 127L KS) CHEM 128 KS -Inorganic Chemistry or CHEM 177 KS -Biochemistry. The remaining elective can consist of either a single upper-division course or two ipper-division half-courses. All lower-division courses and prerequisites in other disciplines (math, physics) must still be met. Students completing a chemistry combined major must complete a 1- or 2-semester thesis. Students completing a combined major in chemistry are not eligibly for the ACS accredited major in chemistry.
