The Bachelor of Arts Degree in Chemistry, which is offered through the College of Letters and Science, includes a greater number of humanities and social science courses than the Bachelor of Science Degree and is intended for those interested in careers in teaching, medicine, or other sciences in which a basic understanding of chemical processes is necessary. Students interested in subsequent graduate studies in chemistry will receive a better preparation by pursuing the B.S. in Chemistry. Students who want the B.A. degree apply for admission to the College of Letters and Science. To graduate with a B.A. degree in Chemistry, students must be in the College of Letters and Science and must have satisfied general University requirements, the American Cultures requirement, and College of Letters and Science requirements in addition to the following major requirements: Chemistry. 4A, 4B, 104A, 104B (103 and 135 may be taken in place of 104A, 104B), 112A, 112B, 120A, 120B, and a choice of one of 105, 108, 115, 125, C170L, or C182. A grade of C- or better is required in Chemistry 4A before taking 4B, in 4B before taking more advanced courses, in 112A before taking 112B, and in 120A and 120B if taken before 125. Students who declare the chemistry major after completing a general chemistry sequence that does not include quantitative analysis are required to take Chemistry 4B, 15, or 105. Mathematics. 1A, 1B, 53, 54. Physics. 7A, 7B. Honors at Graduation for the B.A. Degree in Chemistry To be eligible to receive honors in chemistry at graduation, a student must: * Complete at least three units of Chemistry H194 or another advanced chemistry course as approved by the department * Achieve a GPA of 3.5 or higher in upper division courses in the major * Achieve a GPA of at least 3.3 overall at Berkeley
