Chemistry BS

The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's chemistry bachelor's degree is designed to provide students with a solid foundation in the field of chemistry. The opportunity to pursue a parallel specialization prepares students well for graduate or professional school as well as endless career paths in chemistry, the health sciences and related fields. 

Consistently ranked as one of the best undergraduate chemistry programs in the nation, our chemistry major is taught by standout faculty who are eager to share their knowledge. Explore classes in inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, physics and quantitative analysis. A variety of electives allow you to personalize your education and study the topics that most interest you. 

With access to world-class faculty and instrumentation, graduates of our chemistry program quickly find they leave with so much more than just a degree. They take away research experience, professional connections and publishing opportunities. These types of experiences are unusual at the undergraduate level at most institutions, which is precisely why we offer them. At UW-Eau Claire, we believe that a rigorous education rooted in experiential and real-world learning will provide you with the skills you need to be successful in your chosen field.

Whether you are interested in a career in food science, research and development, pharmaceuticals, chemical analysis, product testing or countless other options, a chemistry bachelor's degree from UW-Eau Claire can be your ticket to an excellent career.
