Our outstanding graduate faculty directs over ~150 graduate students and ~20 postdoctoral associates in research that results in approximately 100 publications per year. Faculty research groups represent the spectrum of chemistry, including analytical, chemical education, inorganic, organic, physical, and biochemistry as well as interdisciplinary research. Funded research in excess of $4.8 million per year from external sources provides outstanding laboratories facilities and support for advanced graduate students as research assistants, thereby allowing them to concentrate more fully on their thesis research.
