Facilities
Intro Chemistry Lab Instrumentation The Chemistry Department is housed in the Noyce Science Center. Chemistry students have access to all research facilities and instruments in the department. Personal study carrels and laboratory space for study and research are available for upper-class students. The facilities foster communication and interaction among students and between the students and professors.

Virtual tour of the department. Phase II of the science building construction is almost done and many of these spaces have changed. We will be updating this site this fall to show the new departmental spaces, so check back soon.
