The Department of Chemistry offers full- and part-time graduate programs leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry and to the Ph.D. degree in chemical physics. The recent addition of new faculty, new laboratories, and the acquisition of new instrumentation provide a firm basis for continued excellence in both teaching and research. A program of studies is tailored to the individual student and is designed to provide a sound background in all areas of chemistry, with emphasis on the student's area of research. The low student to faculty ratio ensures that each student receives personal attention.

The Department of Chemistry at Virginia Commonwealth University is committed to excellence in both research and teaching. Its 18 full-time faculty actively conduct research in the areas of analytical, inorganic, organic, physical, and polymer chemistry and, in cooperation with the Department of Physics, chemical physics. The faculty have had training and experience at leading universities, industrial laboratories, and national research laboratories. Their excellent and diverse backgrounds ensure a graduate program of quality and balance, one that can meet the varied needs of future professionals.

An important and distinctive feature of the department is close interaction between faculty and students. This interaction, in an active and friendly environment, is designed to promote scholarship, develop experimental ability, and stimulate creative thought. Students work side by side with faculty members in small research groups. They are encouraged to present the results of their research at regional and national meetings of the American Chemical Society and other professional organizations. A wide range of graduate courses is offered; the courses are small in size and personal in nature.

A weekly seminar program brings distinguished speakers to the department from academia and industry. Arrangements are made for the speakers to meet with students to discuss research and other topics. The program results in graduates well-prepared for careers in industry, academics, and national research laboratories.

In addition to the regular seminar program, the annual Mary E. Kapp Lecture in Chemistry brings a chemist of international reputation to the department for a two-day visit. This lecture honors Dr. Kapp, the first chairman of the department, who guided the department through its formative years. Dr. Kapp established an endowment for the department from her estate. This endowment, in excess of $3.5 million, was established specifically to support the graduate program in chemistry. It is currently used to fund the seminar program, assistantships for Ph.D. candidates, and graduate student travel to scientific meetings where they present papers.

Any student considering graduate work in chemistry will be concerned about career prospects after graduation. The Department of Chemistry has a good record of placing students in appropriate positions. Recent graduates have obtained postdoctoral appointments at California Institute of Technology, the University of Minnesota, the University of Pennsylvania, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, the Scripps Research Institute, and the Naval Research Laboratory. Others have accepted industrial positions with major companies such as Bristol-Myers, DuPont, Philip Morris, Amoco, Eli Lilly and Abbott Laboratories, and government positions at the EPA and FDA. Graduates who have chosen academic careers are currently on the faculties at North Carolina State University, Mississippi State University, Virginia State University, and several foreign universities.

【简介】
Yale's Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology offers a wide-ranging program of study and research leading to the Ph.D. degree. The program is supervised by approximately thirty faculty members working in six areas:

Biochemistry, molecular biology, and chemical biology
Genetics
Cell and developmental biology
Neurobiology
Plant sciences
Biotechnology

Students whose interests overlap two or more of these areas are encouraged to develop a special program of study for themselves. In addition, students may develop programs of study in conjunction with other University departments such as Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Chemistry, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, or with other schools within the University such as the School of Medicine.

The Department is located primarily in the twelve-story Kline Biology Tower and in the Osborn Memorial Laboratories. These are located on Yale's Science Hill, adjacent to Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Physics, Chemistry, Geology and Geophysics, Forestry and Environmental Studies and the Peabody Museum of Natural History.
