Registration is accomplished using the web through SPIRE. The process requires that you receive registration approval from a Chemistry Department advisor and this hold be removed from your SPIRE account. Hours during which advisors will be available are posted on the Chemistry Department Advising webpages, and will be posted inside the Undergraduate Program Office at 341G ISB. Be sure that you bring your SPIRE Course History, projected S’10 class schedule, and completed checklist to the advisement meeting. It is extremely important that students register as soon as possible during the assigned period, therefore you should schedule a meeting with your advisor before your assigned registration period. If students do not register at this time, they may find it impossible to register for a required course. Remember that it is the student's responsibility to see that departmental, college, and university requirements are satisfied.

When meeting with your advisor, please bring with you:

1. A copy of your Course History. This may be printed from SPIRE.
2. Your proposed schedule, click here to download a blank scheduling grid.
3. Your course checklist for the BA or BS degree curriculum.

Dear Chemistry Majors,

Please note the following changes for the 2009-2010 Academic Year:

1. The Chemistry Department, formerly affiliated with the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics (NSM), has been reassigned to the new College of Natural Sciences (CNS). The CNS Academic Advising office is now in 113 Stockbridge Hall.

2. Physics 261 has been eliminated as a requirement for B.S. Chem majors effective immediately.

3. Beginning in Spring 2010, current sophomores will take Chem 315 and will not take Chem 241 and/or Chem 242. Current sophomores will take Chem 241 in Fall 2010 and Chem 242 in Spring 2011.

4. Chem 241 and 242 will be offered in Spring 2010 to current juniors and seniors who have not yet taken these courses.

5. The one-semester biochemistry course, Chem 490A, will have the number changed to Chem 423 and will be taught Spring 2010. The prerequisite for this course is one year of organic chemistry and it will fulfill the biochemistry requirement for an American Chemical Society certified degree.

6. Students following the BA Chemistry track: Chem 312, Analytical Chem, will no longer be offered. Chem 315 will be the required course and is only offered in the Spring semester.

7. Chem 477 will now be offered only in the Fall semesters.

8. Chem 513 will not be offered this Spring 2010 semester. Beginning Fall 2010, Chem 513 will be offered in the Fall semester only.
