The Graduate Studies Bulletin

"We offer a diverse range of well-funded, internationally recognized research programs in major traditional divisions of chemistry, as well as in the increasingly important interdisciplinary areas of chemical biology, complex systems, materials chemistry and catalysis. Our department plays an active role in the rapidly growing research areas of genomics, quantitative biology and neuroscience. Research opportunities are outstanding,." Epstein p.3

Drawing of new science building now under construction. The building will house chemistry teaching and research laboratories. Scheduled completion date is Fall 2008.

Chemistry at Brandeis combines the power of a University research program with the personality of a small teaching college.

Both undergraduate and graduate programs are research-based, and supported by coursework in the major subfields of biochemistry, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry. Chemistry graduates are well-prepared to go on to professional work in chemistry and allied fields such as environmental science, polymer and materials science, biochemistry and biotechnology, or to continue their education in graduate school, or medical or other professional schools.

Chemistry graduates are sought after by industrial, government, and academic recruiters for their solid grounding in physical sciences and technology.
