Classroom discussions in the Chemistry Department are stimulating, and participation in undergraduate research is strongly encouraged for all students. Because Hendrix is solely undergraduate, all classes and laboratories are taught by full-time faculty, not teaching assistants.
Students work directly with their professors, gaining invaluable hands-on experience.
Hendrix Chemistry students have attended national conferences sponsored by ACS and are able to graduate from Hendrix with ACS certification. Each spring approximately 20 Hendrix chemistry majors give research-based presentations at the National ACS meeting.
