A catalyst often speeds up a chemical reaction by providing new pathways that are more efficient than previous methods. Chemistry department at Northern Kentucky University possesses a different style of catalyst – the students that make our department one of the most active undergraduate research programs in the country. Like the chemical catalyst, they create and explore new pathways to solve problems of great importance to the discipline and society.
Almost every major singles out their research experience and close collaboration with faculty members as the best experience of their time in our department. Here are some stories of current catalysts in our department.
We offer several programs of study, including a Bachelor of Science degree that meets requirements for American Chemical Society certification. Fulll-time faculty members conduct lecture and laboratory courses at every level.
