The study of chemistry provides an atomic/molecular basis for understanding the world. Hands-on, inquiry-based experiences that ask students to construct their own knowledge and communicate it to others lead to a deep understanding of chemical concepts. Our philosophy is for students to learn chemistry by doing what chemists actually do, using sophisticated instruments and techniques that practicing chemists use from the start, providing molecular-level...
Chemistry is often called the "Central Science," because chemical knowledge is essential not only to chemists, but also to biologists (environmental chemistry) . A good knowledge of chemistry provides many options for graduate study and many options for career paths.
The study of chemistry can be divided into two parts: analysis and synthesis. Analysis determines the identities of the components of a real-world sample (a sample of polluted water,...
Environmental scientists work toward defining and solving environmental problems caused by the actions of human beings. Their training is broad-based and encompasses the natural sciences, mathematics, and the social sciences. Their primary ethical concern is human stewardship of the earth.
Students in the Environmental Studies program are concerned with both the technological problems and social aspects of environmental issues. Working in cooperation...
