Undergraduate Programs

BS Chemistry.. a 4-year program that prepares the student for careers in industrial manufacturing firms, research and development, product development, postgraduate work and research in science, and others; the program culminates in a thesis research project.

BS Chemistry with Applied Computer Systems (BS CH/ACS).. The BS Chemistry with BS in Applied Computer Systems (abbreviated CH/ACS)
is a five-year double-degree program established in cooperation with the Electronics, Computer and Communication Engineering Department of the
Ateneo de Manila University. Students in the CH/ACS program initially obtain a BS in Chemistry (CH) after four years of full-time study, and a BS in Applied Computer Systems (ACS) after an additional year. Formerly known as the BS Ch/CE (Chemistry with Computer Engineering) program, which in the 80's pioneered the design and fabrication of micro-computer-based data acquisition and instrumen-tation; the Ch/ACS program has been revised and updated to meet today's technological advances.

Students of the CH/ACS program have a full training in Chemistry (and are eligible to take the Chemistry Professional Licensure Exam), but in addition are trained to integrate computers into scientific instru-ments. Subjects include computer interfacing, signal processing, embedded systems, operating systems concepts, data communications and networking. Graduates find employment in consulting, manu-facturing, software development and education.

B.S./M.S. Chemistry.. This ladder undergraduate/graduate program aims to (i) allow students to complete both the corresponding undergraduate and graduate degrees within a period of 5 years of continuous study; (ii) cater to students who seek to "fast track" to a Master's degree as prerequisite for a Doctorate degree, or for preparation and advancement in industrial settings that require research in the professional practice of chemistry.

B.S. Chemistry and Materials Science and Engineering (BS CH/MSE).. A five-year program, which offers a new kind of training program that is essential for future materials scientist and engineer with sound foundation on the molecular-level understanding of materials and future devices and design: structure, properties, processing, and performance of materials.

B.S. Management of Applied Chemistry.. a 4-year merger program with the Management Department of the Ateneo, the program aims to develop entrepreneurial managers with strong foundation in the science & technology, particularly in chemical-related ventures; the program is highlighted by a summer industry internship and a product launch in the senior management year.

Admission

Admission to any of the Chemistry undegraduate programs requires formal application with the Office of Admissions and Aid.

B.S. Chemistry and B.S. Chemistry with Applied Computer Systems are honors programs which admit only applicants within the top 15 percentile of the incoming first year students.

Financial assistance in the form of scholarships are available to deserving students; this should be applied for during the time of application for the Ateneo College Entrance Tests (ACET).
