Chem Club

Chemistry Club

The UST Chem Club is an active organization with 40-50 members with common interests in some aspect of chemistry.  It is a great way for underclassmen to meet and interact with upperclassmen, and for students to find volunteer opportunities in scientific areas.  The club has been honored by the American Chemical Society (ACS) with awards in each of the past 5 years.  Look for announcements in Owens Science Hall for times and locations of our monthly meetings or contact any chemistry student or professor for more information.
