The Chemistry program is offered by Jefferson (Philadelphia University and Thomas Jefferson University).?As a sophomore, you will start helping with authentic, real-world research projects ? experience many biochemistry students don?t get until graduate programs. This is possible thanks to the individual attention you get in our small classes and our well-equipped research laboratories.

You will actively engage in real-world learning and research experiences that teach you to think critically, scientifically and innovatively.? You will be guided through semester-long research projects, rather than ?cookbook? experiments, thoughtfully conceived by faculty members who are experts in the chemical sciences.

Your evolution as a researcher culminates with your senior research project, a year-long exploration into a pressing scientific issue that encapsulates the scientific process ? with final presentation at a scientific conference, where you get valuable feedback from peers and professionals in the scientific community.?

In our rigorous program, our faculty will help you become a sought-after candidate for whatever plans you may have. Jefferson alumni work in top-ranked pharmaceutical companies, continue education in national and international graduate programs, and become published and patent-receiving researchers.? As a Jefferson chemistry graduate, any career in the chemical field is right at your fingertips.??
