Concentration in Secondary Education With Certification in Chemistry
Students planning to teach chemistry in secondary schools after graduation should consult with the chairs of the Departments of Chemistry and Education as early as possible in their academic careers for certification requirements in education. For certification requirements, see description under the Education Department.
DUAL-DEGREE PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICAL, CHEMICAL AND BIOMOLECULAR, ENVIRONMENTAL, AND MATERIALS SCIENCE ENGINEERING
Goucher College has established a dual-degree program through which students earn both a bachelor of arts degree from Goucher and a bachelor of science degree from the G.W.C.Whiting School of Engineering of The Johns Hopkins University. The purpose of the dual-degree program is to enable students to explore the liberal arts and sciences, while developing professional knowledge and experience in biomedical, chemical, biomolecular, environmental, or materials science engineering. A more comprehensive description of the science and engineering dual-degree programs can be found in the Science and Engineering Section of this catalogue. Consult the program director for additional information.
