Chemists are at the forefront in advancing new technologies to solve problems involving human and animal health, the environment, energy alternatives and conservation, new materials, detection of hazardous substances and crime investigations.
In addition to students receiving a diploma, JSU chemistry graduates will now receive something extra upon completion of their bachelor’s degrees: certification from the American Chemical Society.
The JSU chemistry program has gained the seal of approval from the ACS, an accomplishment that distinguishes the program nationwide as a rigorous and broad-based program that provides undergraduates the intellectual, experimental and communication skills needed to become effective scientific professionals.
