Our department of chemistry offers an outstanding education through high quality instruction in the classroom and laboratory, excellent research opportunities and close student-faculty interactions.
In any of the chemistry majors, you will have small classes, lots of one-on-one with your professors and research opportunities that at many institutions would be limited to graduate students.
Faculty areas of expertise include:
- Computational chemistry
- Bioluminescence
- Gas-phase reaction kinetics mechanisms
- Biosynthesis of natural products
- Enzymology
- Antibiotic resistance
- Inorganic materials chemistry
- Organic synthesis of natural products
- Molecular spectroscopy
