Availability

The minor in Chemistry is available at Fordham College at Rose Hill. Students in Fordham's School of Professional and Continuing Studies may minor in Chemistry only if they receive the approval of their advising dean and/or department, and if their schedules are sufficiently flexible to permit them to take day courses at the Rose Hill campus.
