The chemistry program at Mesa
State offers a series of courses comparable to chemistry departments
nationwide. Our lecture and lab courses in analytical, inorganic,
organic and physical chemistry offer students a broad exposure
to the scope of modern chemical thought and techniques. Chemistry
majors will be prepared for any number of careers, including
chemistry (academic or industrial careers), chemical engineering,
forensic science, or other technology-based careers. the chemistry
program also offers students a solid foundation for further
studies in medical or other health-related schools. Chemistry
majors typically pursue further study at the graduate level,
join industry, or pursue studies in related areas (such as
medical school).
All of our lecturers have Ph.D. degrees and are here at Mesa
State because they value teaching as a profession. Our small
class sizes and the easy accessibility or our faculty offer
students the opportunity to contact faculty and to have questions
answered.
Chemistry faculty have interests outside the classroom and
there are opportunities for student involvement in the research
lab performing chemical synthesis, extraction of natural productss,
and instrumental analysis of chemical compounds. If you have
an interest in pursuing research, keep your eyes posted for
calls for research assistants, and for notices regarding meetings
at which the research interests of the faculty will be discussed!
You can also contact any professor if you feel you'd be interested
in becoming involved with research projects in their area
of expertise. |
