Activities
The
Department of Chemistry maintains an active research program involving both
students and faculty. Courses such as CHEM 295,
CHEM 454, and CHEM 455 give students an opportunity to engage in orginial
scientific research as part of their curriculum.
Chemistry
students are encouraged and supported in pursuing summer research internship
opportunities. Several current and former students have been recipients of summer
fellowships that provided financial support and housing to carry out original
research in laboratories at several prominent academic institutions. A
list of recently honored students and the instituitions where their summer
research was carried out is available.
Modern
instrumentation and computers are frequently integrated into the research activities
of chemistry students. Examples of instrumentation and facilities are available
on our Department Tour.
