Research 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.

 

The Department is a participating member in the Web Accessible Single Crystal X-Ray Diffraction Consortium based at Youngstown State University. This provides both on-site and internet access to state of the art instrumentation for elucidating the structures of crystalline compounds.
