About Chemistry at Brewton-Parker College

Brewton-Parker College is committed to a chemical education at the undergraduate level. The college offers general chemistry, organic chemistry (two semster sequence), organic chemistry, analytical (one semester sequence), and biochemistry (one semester sequence). Currently, Breton-Parker encourages our biology and pre-professional majors to obtain their chemistry minor. The students with a minor in chemistry is growing. We hope to offer a major in chemistry some time in the near future if the demand continues to increase.
