Undergraduate research opportunities are also enhanced by the combination of these program areas. One of the three chemistry concentrations is approved by the American Chemical Society (ACS); the other chemistry concentrations may be taken along with a Secondary Education minor. The ACS-approved curriculum allows flexibility to specialize in a particular area through choice of the elective, the advanced course, and the senior research project. Two concentrations are possible with the Food Science major: Food Science and Technology and Applied Food Science; the latter concentration requires a concurrent minor in biology, business, or nutrition.
