Additional Elective Requirements In addition, 7 units of electives are required (3 of which must be upper division) to be chosen from:

The Chemistry of Everyday Life 3 The basic principles of chemistry for the non–science major. Uses materials of modern society as a theme for exploring the properties and structure of matter as well as the methods and consequences of transforming natural resources to consumer products. 4 Principles and theories of the structure and properties of matter including stoichemistry, atomic theory, the periodic table, chemical bonding, molecular structure, nomenclature, chemical reactions, states of matter, gas laws and solutions.
