CHEMISTRY
Bachelor of Art
The Chemistry
major
requires a minimum of 33 semester
hours of Chemistry. The following courses are required:
1310/1110, 1311/1111, 3401, 3402, 3410, 4105, and 12
additional advanced chemistry hours. A minor is
recommended in a physical or life science, or mathematics.
Required departmental supporting courses are MATH 1310
and 1311 or MATH 1420 and 1421, and PHYS 1310/1110 and
1311/1111.
Bachelor of Science
The Chemistry
major
requires a minimum of 41 semester
hours of Chemistry. The required courses are: 1310/1110,
1311/1111, 3401, 3402, 3410, 3411, 4105, 4140, 4304, 4320,
4321, and six additional advanced chemistry hours.
Supporting courses which must be included in the degree
plan are MATH 1420, 1421, and PHYS 1320/1120,
1321/1121. Students pursuing the BS degree must minor in
one of the following fields: biology, computer science,
geology, mathematics, environmental science, and physics.
The student preparing for graduate study in chemistry should
take additional work in mathematics and physics.
A
minor
in Chemistry for the B.A. or B.S. degrees consists of
CHEM 1310/1110, 1311/1111, 3401, 3402, 3410, and 4
advanced chemistry hours.
A
minor
in Biochemistry for the B.A. or B.S. degrees consists
of CHEM 1310/1110, 1311/1111, 3401, 3402, 4310, 4311,
and 4312.
PHYSICS
Bachelor of Art
The
Physics major
requires a minimum of 33 semester hours
of Physics. The following courses are required: 1320/1120,
1321/1121, 2410, 3320, 3340, 4310, 4090, and 6 additional
advanced physics hours. A minor is recommended in biology,
chemistry, computer science, geology, mathematics, or
environmental science. Required departmental supporting
courses are MATH 1420, 1421, 2320 and 2321
Bachelor of Science
The Physics
major
is available in a cooperative arrangement
with Abilene Christian University. The Physics major requires
students to take from HSU: PHYS 1320, 1120, 1321, 1121,
2410, 3301, 3320, 3330, 3340, 4310, and a total of three
credits of 4090. An additional ten credits of advanced physics
courses are also required, from either HSU or ACU, to reach
the minimum of 40 credits in physics. Required departmental
supporting courses are CHEM 1310/1110, 1311/1111, MATH
1420, 1421, 2320, 2321. A minor must be selected from
biology, chemistry, computer science, geology, mathematics,
or environmental science
Students enrolled in this cooperative program may have the
opportunity to participate in basic research, teaching of
laboratories, and the Society of Physics Students at ACU.
Students will also be eligible for the ACU chapter of the
national physics honor society, Sigma Pi Sigma.
This minor, for B.B.S., B.A., or B.S., consists of 24 credits in
physics from the courses: PHYS 1320/1120, 1321/1121,
2410, 3320, 3340, 4310 and 3 credits of 4090.
Notes:
1. PHYS 1320/1120 and 1321/1121 should be taken by all
physics majors during their freshman year, if offered.
2. MATH 1420 and 1421 should be taken in the freshman
year by all physics majors.
