Overview

Due to the potential hazards some chemicals may present, safety is an essential element of all Chemistry laboratory classes, including independent research. All students in Chemistry (Forensic Chemistry) must adhere to the Department of Chemistry Laboratory Safety Policies at California State University. Failure to adhere to the Safety Policies may constitute grounds for withdrawal from a course and/or dismissal from the program.

Advising

The Department believes advising of students is an important function. Members of the Chemistry Department who have a strong interest in advising have been selected to serve as advisors for students wishing to major in chemistry. Each represents a particular area of chemistry: analytical, inorganic, biochemistry, organic, and physical. Each Chemistry major will be assigned to one of these advisors when entering the Chemistry Department, coordinated to the area of each student's expressed interest.
