LMU的化学专业帮助学生了解科学的经验性质，同时获得化学知识的掌握和发展实用的实验技能。专业人士将利用最新的方法和技术，在传统的合成和分析工作台化学上获得实践经验。学生将受益于小班和实验室规模，每天与教职员工的个人联系以及化学仪器的操作。学生将学习化学领域的广泛介绍，包括原子理论，化学命名法，化学方程式和反应，热化学，电化学和酸碱化学。学生还将学习生物化学，有机化学，物理化学和分析化学。许多学生参加了无机化学，食品化学，葡萄酒化学，法医化学和其他高级课程的选修课程。
LMU's Chemistry major helps students understand the empirical nature of the science while gaining intellectual mastery of chemistry and developing practical experimental skills.<br><br>Majors gain hands-on experience in traditional synthetic and analytic bench chemistry, utilizing the latest methods and techniques. Students benefit from small class and laboratory sizes, daily personal contact with faculty and staff, and operation of chemical instrumentation.<br><br>Students learn a broad introduction to the field of chemistry including atomic theory, chemical nomenclature, chemical equations and reactions, thermochemistry, electrochemistry, and acid-base chemistry. Students also study biochemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, and analytical chemistry. Many students take elective courses in inorganic chemistry, food chemistry, wine chemistry, forensic chemistry, and other advanced courses.
