Chemistry

Chemistry is the study of the structure and behaviour of molecules. Many challenges facing us today пПР from solar energy and the development of space-age materials, to the synthesis of new pharmaceutical products пПР require sophisticated chemical techniques. Our program provides up-to-date practical laboratory training, as well as opportunities to carry out exciting research projects with faculty members, or to participate in the co-op option. Our faculty have received provincial and national teaching awards, and are at the forefront internationally with their research in areas such as electrochemistry and laser spectroscopy. Students choosing the Co-op option will complete their degree in five years.Career opportunities may be found in materials science, drug discovery and synthesis, forensic science, environmental science, and analytical science.

Field of study: Chemistry, General
