THE ENRICHED MAJOR

The following schedule is an example of how students may progress through the major. Chemistry Department faculty are available for help with customizing plans for individual student needs.

Ideal for students that are interested in going to graduate school in chemistry or an industrial setting upon graduation from Sewanee.

Year	Fall Semester	Spring Semester
Freshman	General Chemistry I (Chem 101)[*] Calculus II (Math 102)[†] FYP/Distribution/Elective Distribution/Elective	General Chemistry II (Chem 102) Multidimensional Calculus (Math 207)^† Distribution/Elective Distribution/Elective
Sophomore	Organic Chemistry I (Chem 201) Physics 101 Distribution/Elective Distribution/Elective	Organic Chemistry II (Chem 202) Physics 102 Distribution/Elective Distribution/Elective
Junior	Mechanistic Biochemistry (Chem 307) Thermodynamics & Kinetics (Chem 352) Research (Chem 444) [1/2 course][‡] Distribution/Elective Distribution/Elective	Inorganic Chemistry (Chem 308) Chemical Analysis (Chem 311) Quantum Chem & Spectroscopy (Chem 422) Junior Seminar (Chem 301) [1/2 course][§] Research (Chem 444) [1/2 course]^‡
Senior	Advanced Elective (Chem 4XX)[**] Elective Elective Elective	Senior Seminar (Chem 401) [1/2 course]^§ Advanced Elective (Chem 4XX)^** Elective Elective

· For General Distribution requirements, choose from the following[††]

o English 101

o History 100

o Philosophy or Religion course

o Art & Performing Arts course (Art, Art History, Music, Theatre)

o Social Science course (Anthropology, Economics, Political Science)

o Foreign Language course at 300-level

· General Distribution requirements, as well as two Physical Education courses, must be completed by the junior year.

[*] Well-prepared students with a strong background in Chemistry may enroll in Chem 102 in the fall semester.

[†] Math course placement is determined before Freshman registration. If Math 101 is the first course, then Math 207 may be taken during the sophomore year. Math 207 is strongly recommended, but not required, for the Chemistry major.

[‡] Students who are near the completion of their General Distribution requirements are encouraged to perform research during the school year. A research project must be completed for Honors consideration.

[§] Students attend departmental seminars throughout the entire junior and senior year; registration for the course is in the spring semester.

[**] Advanced Electives include: Chem 405 (Adv Organic Chemistry), Chem 408 (Adv Topics in Inorganic Chemistry), Chem 417 (Adv Biochemistry), Chem 424 (Topics in Physical Chemistry), and Chem 428 (Adv Topics in Analytical Chemistry).

[††] Students completing the Humanities sequence receive credit for four college course requirements (English 101, History 100, philosophy/religion, & fine arts).
