Message from the Chair Welcome to the chemistry department at NC A&T State University. Our department is rapidly growing teaching and research centered with fifteen faculty and excellent instructional facilities. The chemistry majors at North Carolina A&T State University will study and live in an atmosphere that is highly conducive to learning. This is possible because the Department of Chemistry has a history of small class sizes for chemistry majors, and very good student-professor and student-student relationships. Our department prepares chemistry majors for entry in graduate or professional schools and for careers in teaching or in industry. All students served by the department gain insight into the nature of scientific investigations and the scientific enterprise in general. We also emphasizes outreach to the local and academic community as well as contributions to the extension of basic knowledge of chemistry and related sciences. The Department offers B.S. degree tracks in biochemistry, education, research, pre-health and professional chemistry. The undergraduate track in professional chemistry is certified by the American Chemical Society. Master’s degree programs are also offered in professional chemistry and chemistry education. Chemistry students also participate in the M.S. program in Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) and in the Interdisciplinary Ph.D. program with Energy and Environmental Studies (EES). Establishment of M.S. and Ph.D. programs in Nano-science at the Joint School of Nano-science and Nano-Engineering (JSNN) is currently underway. The department is housed in a state-of-the-art facility. The two-year old science building contains smart classrooms for teaching and research. The classrooms are set up with workstations on their perimeter which allows for a student to make a smooth transition from pre-lab discussion to laboratory experimentation. In 2007-2008, the department’s undergraduate enrollment increased to 98, with 15 M.S. students in Chemistry and two interdisciplinary Ph.D. students from the EES program. Several scholarships and fellowships are available to support both graduate and undergraduate studies. The department is equipped with state of the art instruments and computational facilities for research and education. We look forward to continued growth as we embrace the atmosphere of collaboration and interdisciplinary research.
