Bachelor of Science - Chemistry Education

Bachelor of Science - Chemistry Education

The goal of Avila University B.S. in Chemistry Education is to provide a curriculum that, in four years, gives students a solid foundation in chemistry and also the coursework necessary for certification to teach chemistry at the secondary level. It is considered crucial that graduates be fully-trained chemists, capable of working in a range of technical positions outside of secondary education. The curriculum also seeks to expand the scientific background/perspective of graduates by requiring courses in other scientific disciplines as well as a science history course. This provides you the opportunity to explore where your interests in science will lead you.

Career Path
