The Department of Chemistry's mission is to offer undergraduate and graduate programs of study that delivers the core elements of Chemistry, Biochemistry, Forensic Science and related fields. It provides a chemical education that prepares students for professional work in chemistry, graduate schools, teaching positions, and scientific- or laboratory-based employment. The department believes that optimal learning is achieved when the study of essential content is reinforced through laboratory experience. Our programs offer opportunities to actively participate in modern chemical research that includes the use of modern chemical instrumentation and technology. Effective communication of chemical information is promoted, as is critical thinking and the development of problem-solving skills.
