Department of Chemistry 

The major in Science has two concentrations—General Science and Health Science. A minimum of 9 semester hours of upper-division courses in either concentration of the Science major must be taken at MTSU. The Science major requires only one minor which must include at least 3 semester hours at the upper-division level taken at MTSU.

Students may become licensed to teach biology, chemistry, or physics in secondary schools (grades 7–12) by completing (1) a major in science with a General Science concentration in which biology, chemistry, or physics is, respectively, one of the 19-hour disciplines chosen; (2) courses in addition to the General Education requirements (see advisor); and (3) a minor in Secondary Education through MTeach.

Students may also become licensed to teach biology, chemistry, or physics by majoring in the subject they intend to teach (see requirements listed under the specific major).
