The undergraduate chemistry program at the University of North Texas strives to provide its students with a quality education in the fundamental areas of chemical knowledge and hands-on training using modern chemical instrumentation. The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry qualifies you to be a professional chemist or to earn a certificate in forensic science.
Why Earn a Chemistry Degree?
The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry degree is certified by the American Chemical Society, and is designed primarily for students planning to pursue advanced graduate studies or to seek employment in private industry or in a government laboratory.

students planning to attend graduate school;
students planning a career in chemical industry; or
students who are pre-professional Allied Health majors
Undergraduate students who wish to teach in the public school system can pursue a BA in Chemistry with Teaching Certificate.
The undergraduate chemistry programs at the University of North Texas provide many opportunities beyond formal classroom instruction. Students can perform independent research under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Many of our undergraduate students have co-authored research publications resulting from their undergraduate research, and many have gone on to graduate studies at top research universities.
