Some develop valuable combinations of skills by later going into law, business administration,&nbsp;or library science. Others get into occupational health and safety, compliance verification, regulatory affairs, technical writing or database management, as well as sales and marketing. Many&nbsp;teach&nbsp;their favorite subjects in elementary or secondary schools. Some pursue graduate studies and build careers in&nbsp;research&nbsp;and a few become college or university professors.&nbsp;The Careers link below provides a brief overview of some of the opportunities&nbsp;the various&nbsp;Chemistry&nbsp;subdisciplines&nbsp;provide. As you will see, Chemistry skills are valued almost everywhere!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the Chemistry Department's commitment to offering useful and high-quality degrees, our programs are continually evolving&nbsp;to match the needs of&nbsp;many&nbsp;future employers.
