A minor is a structured group of courses that leads to considerable knowledge and understanding of a subject, although with less depth than a major. Some employers consider minors desirable, and the corresponding major requirements at the University may stipulate a minor. Some students choose to complement their major program with a minor in a related field or even in an entirely different field of interest. Chemistry examines the composition, structure, properties, and changes to stuff at the nano-meter scale; this is the molecular and atomic scale. Chemists understand the world in terms of how these molecular and atomic units interact.
