Research Information

Student-faculty collaborative research is a strength of the Chemistry program. Research projects are ongoing in the areas of analytical, physical, organic, inorganic, and biochemistry. The research experience may be as short as a single semester or it may last for a year and even culminate to a published paper. All students who are pursuing an American Chemical Society approved major must complete one year of undergraduate research.

Please take a few minutes to check out the exciting research opportunities available.

Internship Guidelines

Students may supplement classroom learning through appropriate on-the-job work experience arranged with local, state, and federal government agencies, and private corporations. Granting of academic credit for internship experience is at the discretion of the Department of Chemistry & Physics. These guidelines also apply for earning CHEM 489 credit for research at another institution, e.g. REU programs.
