The chemistry program provides education and
training in chemistry to students who wish to pursue careers in chemistry,
biotechnology, medicine, dentistry, allied health fields, science teaching,
environmental science, materials science and engineering. Chemistry is
considered the central science because it is required for full understanding
of many other sciences as well as medicine. The Chemistry Department offers
courses for general education as well as for majors in chemistry, biology,
biotechnology, nursing and health sciences. As well as chemistry major and
minor programs, the department also offers concentrations in nuclear
medicine technology, biochemistry, environmental chemistry and
bioinformatics. Majors in chemistry may also be eligible for the Accelerated
Pharmacy Program with the Massachusetts University of Pharmacy and Health
Sciences. The department has a chapter of the Gamma Sigma Epsilon National
Honor Society in chemistry. The department offers opportunities for
undergraduate research in organic chemistry, bioanalytical chemistry,
nanoscience and molecular modeling. The Chemistry Department promotes green
chemistry in its curriculum and research.
