Overview

About the program

Research in Missouri University of Science and Technology's Department of Chemistry addresses fundamental questions that provide answers to important societal problems.

Building on the traditional sub-disciplines of analytical, inorganic, (bio)organic and physical chemistry, our research groups emphasize inter- and multidisciplinary research with notable strengths in materials science, polymer chemistry, and environmental science.

The S&T community is rife of opportunities for interdisciplinary studies and such ambitions are facilitated by world-class centers.
