The Department of Chemistry at Virginia Commonwealth University offers unique opportunities for interdisciplinary study and scientific discovery at both the undergraduate and graduate level. We seek to create independent thinkers capable of addressing and solving the next generation of scientific and technological problems. Currently, we have 35 faculty and more than 400 Chemistry majors and 70 graduate students. We recently introduced two new graduate programs in chemistry: An Accelerated BS+MS program as well as a non-thesis MS program in Chemistry to serve those that work in industry who want to further their education. We are also fully invested and participate in two interdisciplinary Ph.D. programs in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology and Chemical Biology. Diversity and inclusion are among our greatest assets.
