Message from the Department Chair
On behalf of the faculty, staff and students of the Department of Chemistry & Chemical Biology at Cornell University, I invite you to explore our research and educational mission through this website. As one of the oldest Chemistry Departments in the nation, we have a proud history of discovery, innovation and scholarship. We are fortunate to count Nobel Prize winners, National Academy Members, MacArthur Fellows and Guggenheim Fellows among our faculty.
Teaching thousands of undergraduate and advanced students each year, education is a central focus of our endeavors. Our graduate students and postdoctoral fellows perform cutting edge chemical research that is supported by many national granting agencies and foundations. We are committed to the advancement and inclusion of all students and aim to foster a diverse environment for science and learning. Herein, we provide information on our personnel, research, course offerings and outreach activities. We welcome your feedback and interaction.
