This is the suggested sequence of courses, but some rearrangement of the sequence is possible as long as prerequisites and corequisites are observed. Consult the appropriate Undergraduate Catalog or your advisor for additional information. Questions may also be directed to the Chemistry Department Undergraduate Advisor.
