Chemistry continues to be one of science’s most versatile majors: A chemistry major can do almost anything relating to science.Our graduates have gone on to careers in environmental analysis, pharmaceutical drug discovery, agricultural chemistry, polymer and materials science, medical research, marketing, forensics, teaching, just to mention a few. Others have pursued the medical professions, gaining entry into medical, veterinary, and dental schools.
We encourage research-oriented students to pursue advanced degrees in chemistry or biochemistry, and recent graduates have obtained full fellowships in M.S. and Ph.D. programs at Lehigh, Delaware, Washington (St. Louis), Princeton, North Carolina State, Duke, Penn State, Ohio State, Southern Mississippi, and others.
The Cedar Crest chemistry and biochemistry programs allow you to work closely with faculty to structure your academic program, carry out student-faculty research, gain an internship experience, obtain a summer research fellowship, work for the Department as a student instructional assistant, and enjoy the activities of the Chemistry Club, an American Chemical Society student affiliate group.
