The Chemistry program at UA Little Rock offers enriching courses that are designed to prepare students for graduate study, medical school, secondary education, or careers in the chemical industry. Courses are grounded in problem-solving using both practical and quantitative reasoning skills. Undergraduate chemistry students participate in labs in general, organic, and quantitative chemistry.
We offer a Master of Science in Chemistry which is a blend of traditional and nontraditional innovative courses that reflect the needs of modern chemistry. We also partner with the Applied Science Program in offering the Applied Science Ph.D. in Applied Chemistry.
Students are prepared to address chemical problems from nuclear to biomedical issues and everything in between. Our graduates go on to have careers in medicine, chemical industrial research, teaching, energy and waste management, and biotechnology.
Our faculty are committed to supporting student research at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Additionally, we use active learning in our introductory classes which encourages students to get involved in their own research.
