Chemistry Allied Field
Chemistry is the study of the molecular structure, properties, and reactions of matter. Within the Neuroscience major, the Chemistry Allied Field focuses on organic chemistry, chemistry of life processes, and the uses of chemistry in biological experimentation, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
Electives in the Chemistry Allied Field (choose 4 units, 2 courses which must be 300-level or above).
For Neuroscience Majors who declared prior to August 2021, 6 units chosen from the list below.
