Chemical Technology

Associate in Applied Science Degree

Note: Chemical technology students requiring developmental courses in math must complete MAT-016 Intermediate Algebra or MAT-026 Intermediate Algebra Express prior to taking courses in Biology and Chemistry.

The chemical industry, a major New Jersey employer, is important for the creation and manufacturing of basic items such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetic/personal care products, gasoline, plastics, fabrics and foods. Chemical Technology is an ideal program of study for students who are interested in this field and desire a more practical hands-on approach to learning. Students learn to use gas chromatography (GC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and other state-of-the-art equipment, as well as modern wet chemical techniques.

Chemical Technology graduates earn an Associate in Applied Science degree, which provides them with the theoretical and technical expertise to be employed at the technician level in research laboratories, quality control labs, pilot plants, chemical production and environmental-monitoring facilities and testing labs. The department works collaboratively with Career Services in providing opportunities to our students for paid and unpaid internships.  Graduates can choose to transfer to a four-year institution for a baccalaureate degree in chemistry or related scientific disciplines. Courses in this program are also ideal for retraining purposes.
