Undergraduate Research for chemistry majors

Professor John Kirk teaching a class to students earning a chemistry degree. Research is built into the Carthage experience through the required senior thesis and options such as the paid Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE), leading to regional and national conference presentations. Ongoing research projects include quantifying chloride from road salting in nearby water sources, using NMR spectroscopy to study the mechanisms of oxidation reactions, and using NMR spectroscopy to explore model membranes and chiral polymers.

化学 students also have performed summer research off campus at Cornell University, the University of Minnesota, 弗吉尼亚理工大学, the Medical College of Wisconsin, and other research universities.
