Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Chemistry] From College of Staten Island

The degree affords the opportunity to participate in pure chemical research, product development, marketing, and sales. A student with a BS in Chemistry may branch out and become involved in government jobs in geochemistry, toxicology, and environmental chemistry. The Chemistry major also might elect to work in the more medically oriented fields such as pharmacology, biochemistry, bioengineering, or medicinal chemistry or to enter the teaching profession. For students who wish to pursue graduate study in the sciences or enter professional schools (medicine, dentistry, optometry, pharmacy), a BS degree in Chemistry or Biochemistry is viewed quite favorably by admissions committees.
