化学（Chemistry）是一门研究物质的性质、组成、结构、变化，以及物质变化规律的科学，化学是物理学的一个分支，其基本单位是原子。通常情况下，化学也被称为“中心科学”，与其它自然学科，如：物理学、地质学、生物学都有紧密的关系。

学生评价
The chemist, with his white lab coat and wild hair, is difficult to define and yet endowed with seemingly mystical powers to change the physical structure of the world.
“The main challenge to this major is overcoming the idea that it's difficult … I made the realization that the subject is only as hard as I imagine it to be.”
Christina, junior, chemistry, UC Davis
Are You Ready To...?
- Learn how everyday products such as fabrics and plastics are created
- Write lab reports
- Create chemical reactions in the lab
- Use lab tests to identify unknown compounds
- Take math, physics, and biology as well as chemistry
It Helps To Be...
- Curious about what makes up the world around us and why things are the way they are. If you’ve always wanted to know why the sky is blue or how a diamond differs from coal, then chemistry could be the major for you.*(2)
