- CHEM& 110/CHEM& 110L fulfills the chemistry requirement for the AAS degree in Nursing, Fire Science, and certain career tracks in agriculture. It is also ideal for non-science majors who want a lab science course that gives a good introduction to chemical topics important in our technological society.
- CHEM& 140/CHEM& 140L is intended for science majors who have not had chemistry in high school and need the chemical and mathematical preparation required for the CHEM& 161, CHEM& 162, CHEM& 163 series. It can also be used to fulfill the lab science requirement for other majors.
- CHEM& 121, CHEM& 122, CHEM& 123 is the allied health sequence and is required for respiration therapy, dental hygiene programs at Yakima and Spokane colleges, and certain agriculture career tracks. This course is also suitable for nursing, particularly for those seeking the four-year baccalaureate degree in nursing or other allied health fields. Only CHEM& 121 is a pre-admission requirement for the CBC Dental Hygiene program.
- CHEM& 161, CHEM& 162, CHEM& 163 sequence is intended for science and engineering majors and pre-professional majors such as pre-med, pre-dental, pre-veterinary, pre-optometry, pre-pharmacy, medical technology, physical therapy, and forensic science.
- CHEM& 131 provides an overview of organic chemistry and biochemistry for students that do not need the level of detail provided by CHEM& 122 and CHEM& 123. This course is accepted for the baccalaureate degree in nursing at some four-year institutions.
- The Chemistry department also provides a full array of second-year chemistry courses, including the organic chemistry sequence (CHEM& 241, CHEM& 242, CHEM& 243) and accompanying laboratory for chemistry, chemical engineering, biochemistry, biology, environmental science, and the pre-professional majors listed above; quantitative analysis, instrumental analysis, and laboratory (CHEM 254, CHEM 255) for chemistry, biochemistry, environmental chemistry, forensic science, and certain other majors; and the unique opportunity to take undergraduate research (CHEM 286 and CHEM 290) as a technical elective.
