Overview

The Chemistry and Climate program offered by Harvey Mudd College considers that climate change is one of the grand challenges of our time and the field of chemistry has enormous potential to shape our collective future. Chemistry is central to many critical aspects of climate science and climate solutions, including innovations in clean energy technology, green materials, and improved representations of atmospheric and ocean systems in climate models across all scales. Chemical intuition supports the development of climate literacy, while coursework in climate science, impacts, interventions, and contexts adds breadth and perspective for students who wish to become knowledgeable in this highly interdisciplinary space.
