为什么要学化学?
Chemists study matter in its most basic forms—atoms and molecules. By understanding these building blocks, we search for new ways to organize matter into life-saving 医学, 太空时代的材料, and exciting consumer products. 化学 majors can pursue rewarding careers in research, 行业, 医学, 教育, 还有更多.
重点教授:博士. 伊莎贝尔Larraza
Dr. 伊莎贝尔Larraza, 化学教授, wants her students to take an active role in their biochemistry 教育—including designing new experiments and participating in teaching their peers in the classroom and lab.
化学 & Pre-pharmacy俱乐部
Students with a general interest in chemistry or who are interested in becoming pharmacists are invited to join either or both the 化学 and Pre-pharmacy clubs. The 化学 Club regularly organizes outings and social events that bring students together in the name of increasing knowledge and having fun. Pre-pharmacy Club members plan service projects and training events which provide first-hand experience and allow students to work together outside of the classroom.
