Education

Students studying on the Ford lawn

Molecular understanding is central to asking and answering many important questions, so we educate thousands of students on our campus every year. Our majors get degrees in either Chemistry or Biochemistry, with opportunities to focus on a variety of undergraduate tracks or graduate specializations. We also provide training for those interested in education as a career, including opportunities to work with our faculty who are teaching experts in the pursuit and publication of research in chemical education.
