About the course

The Department of Chemistry provides a flexible and dynamic environment in which to pursue a Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy degree in Chemistry. Students have the opportunity to work with faculty with interests in Biochemistry, Environmental Chemistry, Chemical Education and Materials Science, Analytical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry. Our faculty members have active research programs in Synthesis (inorganic, organic, polymer, and supramolecular synthesis), Surface Chemistry (catalysis and corrosion studies), Spectroscopy (IR laser spectroscopy and bioanalytical applications for Raman and Surface Enhanced Raman methods), Structural Biology (using NMR and computational methods), and Biophysical studies (including cancer drug discovery). Environmental research programs focus on the development of novel miniature chemical sensors and on pesticide and herbicide transport, while Computational chemists are developing Ab initio and semi-empirical methods to study complex biological systems and important chemical processes. Chemical Education faculty focus on the undergraduate educational experience and explore ways to support students on their individual paths to success in science and engineering fields.
