获得化学学位的毕业生可以在中学或者社区大学从事教师、或者在专业化的公司的实验室从事分析工作、或者深入学习化学领域的其他分支学科。课程包括普通化学、实验室技巧、数量分析、仪器分析、有机化学、物理化学,同时也要学习物理和计算知识。该专业的就业前景依旧很被看好。
A general degree in chemistry may lead to a teaching career at the secondary or community-college level, to work in the analytical lab of a major corporation, or to advanced studies in some branch of chemistry. Coursework is likely to include general chemistry, laboratory techniques, quantitative analysis, instrumental analysis, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, as well as courses in physics and calculus. The occupational outlook in this field is expected to be stable.
