Collaboration within the Chemistry department and the College is encouraged. The Chemistry department offers B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees with specializations in Polymer, Natural Products, Environmental, and Biochemistry Chemistry. The Department currently has 14 faculty members. There are approximately 50 undergraduate students and 40 graduate students. Major spectroscopic equipment includes both 600 and 300 MHz NMR with solid state capabilities.
All probes are capable of variable temperature studies.
Several FTIR spectrometers including a Nicolet Magna IR750 with photoacoustic cell are available. The molecular weight laboratory has two SEC lines. The organic system uses a Waters 150-CV chromatograph with internal viscosity detector and and Precision Detector PD2040 QELS detector. For a more complete listing of instruments see our facilities list . The College has several multimedia class rooms.
