Take the course you need! Does your program require one or two semesters of chemistry? Is a laboratory required? It's always a good idea to check with your advisor to ensure the credits will be acceptable. Also check to make sure the program you're in will accept transfer credit from Weber State University or USD. Almost all educational institutions will accept credits from WSU and USD, but it's best to inquire ahead of time. Here's a brief outline that will help you decide what course to take.

Chem PS 1050: Introduction to General, Organic and Biochemistry - 5 semester hour credits, for those needing a one semester course with lab. A course designed primarily for students of nursing and health sciences. The course is completed in a fifteen-week semester (twelve in summer). With approximately 40% of the course is devoted to general chemistry, and 60% to organic and biochemistry. Laboratory experiments are done online using a computer, a lab manual, and lab CD. Course Content Chem 1050
Chem PS 1110: Elementary Chemistry - 5 semester hour credits, for those needing a one semester course of general chemistry with lab. Fundamentals of inorganic chemistry and brief introduction to organic chemistry are included. This is the first course in a two-semester sequence designed primarily for students of nursing, engineering technology and other health professions or sciences who will take no more than one year of chemistry. Laboratory experiments are done using a computer, a lab manual and a lab CD. Course Content Chem 1110.
Chem 1120: Elementary Organic/Biochemistry - 5 semester hour credits, for those who have taken chemistry 1110 and need a second semester of organic/biochemistry with lab. The course includes an elementary study of the compounds of carbon and chemical compounds and chemical processes of biological systems. Prerequisite: Chem PS 1110 or equivalent. Laboratory experiments are done using a computer, a lab manual, and a lab CD. Note: Chemistry 1120 is NOT the organic chemistry course required for pre-medical and pre-dental students. Course Content Chem 1120
