Graduation Requirements
The following requirements must be met in order to obtain a degree in chemistry:
- Earn a minimum of 120 hours (129 for chemistry, teacher licensure) of acceptable credit with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher
- Complete at least 12 hours of SIUE credit in major courses numbered above 299 with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above
- Earn a GPA of 2.0 or above in all major courses numbered above 299
- Complete at least six hours of SIUE credit in major courses numbered above 299 within two years preceding graduation
No more than eight semester hours of D grades in any combination of science or mathematics courses may be counted toward a major in chemistry.
Credit hours earned through proficiency, transfer, CLEP or from a course, after credit has been received for similar or more advanced coursework in the same subject at SIUE or elsewhere, may not be applied toward graduation requirements.
Students admitted to a health professions school at the end of their junior year may transfer appropriate health professions school credits to complete the requirements for a degree in chemistry from SIUE.
