also has significant facilities for computational chemistry.
Undergraduate
chemistry students are actively involved in research with the Chemistry faculty and
research space is dedicated for use by
the students and faculty. Research interests are varied and have
led to many presentations at national meetings, such as the national meeting of
the American Chemical Society and the National Conference on Undergraduate
Research. Our majors are successful
