TEACHER LICENSURE IN CHEMISTRY

Students seeking teacher licensure in chemistry must complete a major in chemistry, as well as complete required education courses and student teaching. Education requirements are available through the education department. Interested students should also consult the chemistry department regarding the optimal selection of electives.

Students seeking Initial Licensure in Massachusetts must pass the Massachusetts Tests for Educator Licensure (MTEL). Emmanuel College

DISTINCTION IN THE FIELD

Distinction in the field of chemistry requires the completion of two semesters of CHEM4194/4195 Research Internships in the Natural Sciences, a public presentation of research results, and a 3.5 cumulative grade point average in Chemistry courses and additional required major courses (MATH1111, MATH1112, PHYS2201, PHYS2202).

PRE-MEDICAL, PRE-DENTAL, PRE-VETERINARY STUDENTS

Students with the goal of medical school, dental school, or veterinary school should refer to page144 for detailed information concerning the program of study at Emmanuel College. Students majoring in chemistry are strongly encouraged to choose a concentration in biochemistry as preparation for careers in health professions.

Requirements for Pre-Health Professions Preparation For chemistry students, the following will fulfill all the admissions requirements set by the Association of American Medical Colleges for medical, dental, veterinary and optometry schools:

B.S. in chemistry with biochemistry concentration Two semesters of English General Psychology and Introduction to

Sociology are recommended
