Bachelor of Arts - Chemistry (International Direct)

The Chemistry Department at the University of Massachusetts Boston offers the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in Chemistry. The undergraduate program has been designed to prepare students for the challenges that face the chemist in modern society. Graduates may go directly into industry or may continue their education at the graduate level in chemistry, medicine, dentistry, or other fields. Both lectures and discussion sections in most first and second-year courses are conducted by faculty members who bring to the subject their experience in teaching and research to help make students aware of current developments in the field. Faculty direct laboratories as well, and with the aid of teaching assistants are able to give individual attention to smaller groups of students during laboratory sessions. Upper-level courses are conducted in small groups under almost tutorial conditions.
