Chemists study matter and the changes it undergoes to solve some of society’s most vexing problems. Some work on medicines to treat cancer and other diseases, while others develop materials to convert the sun’s energy to electricity. Still others develop polymers with applications in cleaning up pollution and creating a more sustainable environment.
A degree in chemistry affords a student a wide range of career options in chemical industry, education and government. See our Career Choices website for a listing of former students and their career choices.
