Department of Chemistry

Faculty work with students in a hands-on environment to support the understanding of chemical principles. Instruction is augmented by an impressive variety of chemical instrumentation incorporated into both general and organic chemistry laboratories.

A Focus on Innovation

Through the Vision 2020 commitment to innovation in the sciences, the University broke ground on the construction of a Science and Innovation Center in April 2019. The 36,000 square-foot facility opened in Fall 2020 and provides state-of-the-art resources for microbiology, biotechnology, anatomy and physiology, genetics, organic and inorganic chemistry, physics, and environmental science.

Watch the video to learn how we put science on display with learning spaces that foster innovation and discovery, laboratories and equipment designed to solve real-world problems, technology that brings the world of science into the classroom, and collaborative spaces for faculty and student research!

The Center will feature:

• Learning spaces that foster innovation and discovery
• Laboratories and equipment designed to solve real-world problems
• Technology that brings the world of science into the classroom
• Collaborative spaces to foster faculty and student research
