9 December 2004 Catalog Minutes
Note: The following curricular revisions from the Department of Chemistry were approved by the UCC on 11/11/2004, provided they received Graduate Curriculum Committee approval. They were not approved by the GCC until December 1st, so they appear in these catalog minutes rather than those of our 11/11/2004 meeting.

Admission Requirements
Students enrolled at East Carolina University or transferring from other institutions who have a minimum 2.0 GPA and a minimum grade of C in CHEM 1150, 1151, 1160, 1161 and MATH 1065 may apply for admission as chemistry majors. Students who hold a baccalaureate degree qualify for admission to the chemistry degree program if they have completed comparable courses as described above with a minimum grade of C as part of their first degree.
BA in Chemistry
The BA program provides a flexible major designed to provide the student with a broad education in chemistry appropriate for further study in a wide range of fields, such as business, medicine, pharmacy, and law as well as careers dependent on a basic knowledge in chemistry. The BA in Chemistry, in conjunction with two semesters of laboratory-based biology courses, satisfies the course requirements for application to most US medical schools. It is different than the BS degree in the required chemistry, math, and physics courses. Any of the required major courses or cognates, however, may be replaced by courses that cover the same topics at a more advanced level. For example, CHEM 3950, 3960 may be taken instead of CHEM 3850. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that the prerequisites for such courses have been met. Minimum degree requirement is 126 s.h. of credit as follows:

Chemistry Honors Program
The Department of Chemistry Honors Program provides an opportunity for outstanding chemistry majors to do intensive study and research in areas of special interest. A student desiring to enter the honors program must be a junior or senior majoring in chemistry and possess a minimum GPA of 3.2 in all courses taken at East Carolina University as well as in all chemistry and cognate courses. Before participating in the honors program, students must notify the Director of Undergraduate Studies in chemistry and select a project supervisor from the chemistry faculty. Program participants are expected to select a topic of mutual interest to both the student and project supervisor, research the topic through the scientific literature, and then conduct independent research on the topic. Upon completion of the research, the student must submit a detailed written research report and make an oral presentation on the honors project. Course requirements: CHEM 4103; a minimum of 5 s.h. research and/or independent study from: CHEM 4505, 4506, 4507, 4515, 4516, 4517.
Bachelor of Science and Accelerated MS in Chemistry
Students working toward a BS degree in chemistry have the opportunity to earn an MS degree in two or three additional semesters of study. These students are encouraged to begin research projects as undergraduates and take advanced classes that can be used to waive some MS course requirements. As seniors they may be granted early admission to the MS program and would be eligible to receive paid teaching assistantships. To be enrolled in the MS program as a senior, a student must be within 6 s.h. credit of completing all undergraduate degree requirements. Applications to the MS program should be submitted during the first semester of the senior year and must include GRE scores.
