Program Learning Outcomes - Chemistry
Bachelor of Science
Students graduating from the University of Redlands with a B.S. in chemistry will have demonstrated a mastery of chemistry at a level that will allow them to be successful in professional schools or in careers that benefit from knowledge of the physical sciences. This goal is elucidated in outcomes 1-7:
- Master content in organic, physical, analytical, and inorganic chemistry by:
- describing chemical and physical structures
- problem solving using mathematical models
- analyzing and describing the nature of chemical reactions and energy
- Be independent learners, by searching and explaining the chemical literature and other scientific resources in order to teach themselves new concepts
- Measure and characterize properties of matter using a variety of research-level chemical instrumentation, laboratory techniques, statistical and computational methods
- Display effective cooperation with others on projects in various learning and work environments
- Design and conduct original laboratory, computational or theoretical experiments and analyze the results leading to the capstone research project
- Clearly communicate experimental motivations and results through oral and written means
- Demonstrate professional integrity, safety, and environmental stewardship
