化学概述

Chemists and material scientists study and analyze the basic materials of matter. 在某种程度上， 一切科学都依赖于化学. 在查塔姆, you will become familiar with many advanced pieces of equipment for chemical analysis, learning how to use computers to analyze chemical data and to create models of drug interaction. 走出实验室, you will develop written and oral communication skills, 批判性思维, 信息素养.

文理学院 & 业务

My goal with students is not to teach them everything they’ll ever need to know, but to teach them that learning is worth the effort. Whether learning a complex chemistry concept or the art of getting along with others, it’s learning and growing in one’s self that is important. By challenging students in and out of the classroom, I strive to help them achieve excellence in academics as well as a responsibility to the greater world in which they live.

——罗伯特·莱坦博士.D., Chair of the Science Department and associate professor of chemistry

探索化学学位:

经 美国化学学会, the curriculum includes intensive preparation for graduate study and careers in the chemical industry or governmental laboratories.

  • Students have opportunities to conduct research with peers and faculty, 并在会议上发表文章和演讲.
  • Students receiving BS degrees in chemistry are able to have their degrees certified as meeting the rigorous standards of the 美国化学学会. Fewer than 700 of the 5,000 American colleges and universities have achieved this privilege.
  • 你可以申请 本科生研究经历(REU) 职位，由赞助 国家科学基金会 或其他. This program allows undergraduate students to participate in active research projects during the summer before their junior or senior year.
  • You can also leverage Pittsburgh’s tight-knit academic and medical community through connections our faculty has around the region.

综合化学实验室

Experiments are selected to illustrate important principles of advanced experimental chemistry and to familiarize students with important experimental methods. The course is intended to encourage students to think critically about the reliability of their experimental results in the light of their previous chemistry experience. 

环境化学

This course is an advanced study of the chemical principles underlying common environmental problems. It aims to deepen the student’s knowledge of chemistry and its role in the environment and shows the power of chemistry as a tool to help us comprehend the changing world around us.

计算药物设计

Study of computational techniques of importance in contemporary drug design. 主题包括分子对接, 配体结合自由能计算, 从头药物设计, 药效团说明, 定量构效关系, 组合库设计.
