Welcome to the Chemistry Department

The Chemistry Department at Madison College offers a variety of chemistry courses to fulfill the dual mission of Madison College's Arts and Sciences Center: to serve associate degree program students by offering relevant and timely courses; and to serve college transfer students by offering courses that transfer to most University of Wisconsin and Wisconsin Technical College System schools.
