• Chemistry is the study of matter; its composition, the changes it undergoes, and the accompanying changes in energy. Chemistry is often called the "central science", because a basic understanding of chemistry is essential for the study of subjects like biology, physics, and ecology.
  • The Department of Chemistry at MSVU challenges students to be both analytical and creative. Small class sizes and, in many cases, the opportunity to participate in research prepares undergraduate students for their future endeavours: graduate school, medicine, dentistry, or pharmacy, to name a few.
