Residential Chemistry Program
The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry degree program at Liberty University prepares students for employment or graduate studies in the molecular sciences by providing a broad-based, lab-intensive chemistry curriculum taught from a biblical worldview.
Design features in chemical systems, as well as chemical methods and theories relevant to the origin of life, are integrated into the curriculum. In the upper-level laboratories, students work with faculty using state-of-the-art chemical instrumental methods. Research opportunities further prepare chemistry graduates for professional opportunities and postgraduate education.
The B.S. in Chemistry is offered through the Department of Biology & Chemistry.
