About
Chemistry is the study of matter, 因此，了解化学意味着了解你周围的世界——从烹饪如何工作到洗涤剂如何清洁衣服. 化学家在原子和分子水平上研究物质，以开发新的和改进的产品, test the quality of manufactured goods and develop new theories.
化学理学士学位-独立设计的学位让学生通过将化学与其他学科相结合来创造自己的专业, either within the sciences or the humanities. 单独设计的课程是与化学和发酵科学系的主席协商制定的.
Like other degrees in Appalachian’s Department of Chemistry and Fermentation Sciences, 这一个结合了创新和智力挑战课程与奖学金和服务/参与的机会，采用最先进的技术. 化学专业的毕业生具有很强的解决问题的能力，这些能力可以转移到许多专业.
对化学和考古学感兴趣的学生可以设计一门课程，让他们对骨骼分析有更多的了解. 一个打算上医学院的学生可能会通过一系列哲学课程来探索伦理学. 或者，一个计划上药学院的学生可能会发现上营养课是有价值的.
