Research in Chemistry

Undergraduate / Graduate

CHEM 296 is an individually-guided, year-long, 0-credit research course and is meant to be a substitute for students who are otherwise unable to take CHEM 299. Some examples of students who should use CHEM 296 include students on a fellowship that precludes them from doing research for credit or students who don't have room in their schedule for 299. Students must submit a written report covering their research activities to the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS). Research activities undertaken in this course can be used towards the writing of a thesis for the consideration of departmental honors.
