Graduate Certificate in Chemistry
This 100 percent online, consortial program is taught by IU Bloomington, IU East, IU Kokomo, IU Northwest, and IU Southeast.
As a student in the IU Online Graduate Certificate in Chemistry, you analyze and explore the chemical processes and principles of organic and inorganic substances. You develop an understanding of multiple subdisciplines of chemistry, and you adopt a methodological approach to problem solving. When you complete the certificate, you will be able to break down chemical concepts and processes, design experiments and assignments to teach chemical concepts, and critically analyze chemistry-related press releases and news.
The 18 cr Graduate Certificate in Chemistry offers coursework in the following areas:Inorganic chemistry
Organic synthesis
Organic spectroscopy
Physical chemistry
Biochemistry
Environmental chemistry
Nuclear chemistry
