Chemists are highly regarded, especially these days. Vaccines? They’re developed by chemists. Even the cars you drive and smartphones you use require chemistry.
At Western, we’ll make sure you get plenty of times in teaching and research labs. You’ll have 600 hours of hands-on experience to boast about to future employers. And you might love working in the lab, which is great! Because the world needs more chemists for energy, mining, agriculture and more.
But that’s not your only choice with a degree in chemistry. You might go into medicine and healthcare, law, business, or education. What we know is you’ll graduate a problem-solver ready to tackle big world challenges. |
