Degree Programs
Bucknell offers two undergraduate degree tracks to meet the interests and goals of our students: a 10-course bachelor of arts program and a more intensive, 17-course bachelor of science program.
Our graduate program includes a master of science track for students interested in research careers or in pursuing a doctoral degree, and a master of arts track for high-school teachers seeking to enrich their training. We also offer a combined bachelor's/master's program for students who know at an early stage that they want a career in chemical research, as well as minors in both chemistry and biochemistry.
