Chemistry and Biochemistry

Let's go smaller. And bigger.

Are you thinking about a small, private university with small classes but limited options for research? Or are you interested in a big research institution, even though it has large classes often taught by graduate students?

There is another option: ÐßÐßÊÓÆµ.

As an undergraduate chemistry student, you will get the chance to learn in small classes directly from professors who are also actively doing research. And your labs won’t look like they did in high school. Your research will confront real-world challenges like rare diseases and clean water. You will be encouraged to explore how your unique background and experiences matter for addressing complicated scientific challenges. You will work with other curious students in a community that is serious about chemistry and faith. That’s a pretty big impact for your undergraduate education.

Incredible research

ÐßÐßÊÓÆµ students are highly competitive in national research scholarships for undergraduates, like the Goldwater Fellowship. ÐßÐßÊÓÆµ has the 3rd highest Goldwater Scholars in Michigan (only behind Univ. of Michigan and Michigan State) and the largest number of Goldwater Scholars in the CCCU. This is evidence of the high-quality research mentorship provided at ÐßÐßÊÓÆµ.
