The Department of Chemistry

The department aims to provide Barnard College students with a working knowledge of chemistry—the study of matter and its transformations, particularly at the molecular scale—within a vibrant community of students, faculty, and staff. Students gain familiarity with the core areas of the field; inorganic, physical, organic, analytical, and biological chemistry; while developing broadly applicable skills in problem solving and critical thinking. Through extensive laboratory work, students apply chemical concepts and theories to the tangible world, and there are ample opportunities for independent research with faculty members.

Mission

The department strives to prepare majors and non-majors alike to meet post-graduation goals, including graduate study in chemistry, employment in chemistry or related technical fields, science teaching, and professional school (particularly in the health-related professions). The department is an important contributor to Barnard’s effort to produce scientifically literate graduates and to be a source of distinguished women scientists.

Student Learning Objectives for Majors in Chemistry and Biochemistry

Students who graduate from Barnard College with a major in chemistry or biochemistry will be able to attain the following objectives:

Demonstrate a thorough grounding in the core areas of chemistry: inorganic, physical, organic, biological, and analytical;
Work effectively and safely in the chemistry laboratory, designing and conducting experiments, analyzing experimental results, and drawing conclusions from that data;
Access, search, and interpret the chemical literature to obtain and critically evaluate scientific information;
Clearly communicate scientific ideas and results both in writing and orally;
Conduct themselves professionally and ethically as members of the scientific community;
Pursue careers that require a high degree of technical expertise, including those in chemistry, science teaching, and the health professions.

Chemistry is the study of the nature of substances and their transformations. In a sequence of core courses, a chemistry or biochemistry major gains familiarity with the basic areas of the field: inorganic, organic, physical, analytical, and biological chemistry. In addition, she acquires sufficient skill in laboratory work that she is prepared for research.

The laboratories of the department are modern and well-equipped for both coursework and independent projects. Students may undertake research projects under the guidance of members of the department during the academic year or the summer. Opportunities are also available for research with Columbia faculty as well as staff members of the many medical schools and research institutions in New York City.

AP Credit

Students with scores of 4 or 5 on the Chemistry AP test or a 5, 6 or 7 on the IB chemistry exam can receive 3 credits of unspecified chemistry credit. Students may not "place out" of CHEM BC2001 unless they have taken the equivalent course(s) in college.

Pre-Medical Program

Non majors who are interested in the pre-health professions should work with the pre-health adviser to determine the best selection of chemistry courses for their goals. information about the topics covered in each chemistry course is available through the prehealth professions office to facilitate student choice.

Introductory Course Selection

Based on their preparation and background in chemistry, most students begin their study with CHEM BC2001 GENERAL CHEMISTRY I, an integrated lecture and laboratory course. Some students will also take CHEM BC1003 CHEMICAL PROBLEM SOLVING, which is a one point corequisite of General Chemistry. Consult the department regarding this choice.

Regardless of a student's background in chemistry, students may also take CHEM BC1050 THE JAZZ OF CHEMISTRY. This 3.0-point seminar is limited to 24 students per section.

Requirements for the Major

Two majors are offered by the department: Chemistry and Biochemistry. There is also a special track within chemistry for students 
who are interested in pursuing graduate study in chemical engineering

A student interested in chemistry or biochemistry should consult any member of the department during her first year. In the first year they should take CHEM BC2001 GENERAL CHEMISTRY I, CHEM BC3328 INTRO ORGANIC CHEMISTRY-LAB, and CHEM BC3230 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I-LEC and start or continue the study of calculus.

In addition to required coursework, research experience is strongly recommended and may begin as early as the sophomore year. Interested students should consult with individual faculty members about research opportunities.

Rising seniors making good progress towards the degree may be invited by the faculty to participate in the senior honors thesis program in which students carry out a year-long research project leading to a thesis. Students who do not perform thesis research will satisfy the senior capstone requirement by taking a single semester of research their senior year.
