Chemistry: the central science : 

Chemistry: the central science The real importance of Chemistry is that it serves as the interface to practically all of the other sciences, as well as to many other areas of human endeavour. For this reason, Chemistry is often said (at least by chemists!) to be the "central science". Chemistry can be "central" in a much more personal way: with a solid background in Chemistry, you will find it far easier to migrate into other fields as your interests develop.
