About Company

Both departments in the College of Chemistry rank among the most prominent in their fields, and both are renowned for their breadth of activity in a diverse range of subdisciplines and applications. Nowhere else will you find such a wide selection of offerings in chemical sciences and applications. Four centers of excellence—in organic synthesis, theoretical chemistry, catalysis, and analytical biotechnology—provide special opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate research. The college is continually modernizing its facilities, and new equipment arrives constantly. Facilities at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory are available to many of the college’s research programs. The California Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Research (QB3) provides a dynamic interdisciplinary environment in which students and faculty in the college collaborate with their colleagues in the physical, mathematical, and biological sciences and in engineering to conduct cutting-edge research into biological problems. With only two departments, the college is a relatively small and comfortable place in which to work. Like anywhere else, the faculty members have many demands on their time, but students are able to develop close and satisfying contacts with a number of faculty members during their stay in the college. We encourage you to explore our college’s offerings, and we look forward to serving you.
