Harvee Patel, Chemistry Major

I have always been interested in how the world works at the molecular level, and chemistry is the perfect discipline to explore this. I chose this college because of its strong reputation for academic excellence in my field of study. When I visited the campus, I was impressed by the state-of-the-art facilities and the diverse student body. I also have the opportunity here at Erskine College to participate in a summer research program, where I will be working on a project related to chemistry.

– Harvee Patel, Chemistry major, class of 2026 

Degree Details: Earn a B.S. or B.A. in Chemistry

You can choose between two tracks within the major, depending on your educational and career interests.

  • The B.S. prepares you for graduate work in M.S. and Ph.D. programs, or for a career as an industrial or governmental chemist. You can further specialize the B.S. degree through a biochemistry or environmental emphasis.
  • The B.A. degree is primarily designed to provide a chemistry foundation for students with a primary B.S. degree in another field. You may also choose to complete a B.A. in Chemistry with an emphasis in biochemistry.

Through your studies, you will build both technical skills and scientific knowledge that will prepare you for future studies and careers.
