B.S. Chemistry/M.S. Chemistry
At Seton Hall, students can earn a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Chemistry and Master of Science (M.S.) in Chemistry simultaneously, offering students an expedited route to earn both STEM degrees.
The five-year (3+2) dual-degree program combines the foundational skills students obtain during their undergraduate studies with advanced, fundamental knowledge of physical and organic chemistry – preparing students for careers in scientific leadership positions in industry, government or academia.
After finishing the program, students will receive American Chemical Society (ACS) certification for their B.S. in Chemistry, which is considered the gold standard for bachelor-level chemistry degrees in the United States.
An ACS-certified program, beyond a resume booster, offers students a broad-based and intellectually challenging education. The additional rigor and requirements of a certified degree are valued by potential employers, as they can help students be better prepared for technical employment.
Through key industry partnerships, students benefit from both internships and research opportunities – all on top of the hands-on research experience they will already receive working alongside faculty across various specializations.
Plus, attaining both degrees in a short timeframe helps to save on tuition costs, advance career progression and opens doors to other advancement opportunities such as presenting at conferences or publishing research results.
