Introduction
Chemistry is often referred to as the central science. It interfaces with and illuminates numerous disciplines, including physics, biology, forestry, and geology. Sewanee's course in general chemistry serves future majors and students from such other disciplines by providing a solid foundation in the central organizational principles of chemistry. Courses in the major amplify this understanding by providing an in-depth exploration of the major sub-disciplines: organic, inorganic, analytical, environmental, physical, and biochemistry. Majors are encouraged to participate in research projects with faculty members, during the school year and in the summer and are also encouraged to participate in research groups at other schools. An active seminar series allows students to gain proficiency in oral presentation of technical material and learn about the frontiers of chemical research from eminent scientists.
