Facilities
The equipment available within the Chemistry Department is extensive, especially when compared to similar liberal arts institutions. The hands-on experience students get, often not possible at a larger university, gives them a definite edge in understanding the practical and theoretical aspects of chemistry, as well as competing in today's job market. Some of the equipment items available for students are:
- Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry/Data System
- Purge and Trap Concentrator
- Gas Chromatographs (FID, TCD, PD-HID)
- High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Data System
- Ion Chromatograph
- Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer
- Flame Emission Spectrometer
- Fluorescence Spectrometer
- UV-Vis Spectrophotometers
- IR Spectrophotometer
- Near-IR Spectrophotometer
- FT-IR Spectrophotometer
- CW Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer
- FT Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer
- High Vacuum Evaporator
- Scanning Tunneling Microscope
- Digital Data Acquisition Systems
- Electrochemical Instrumentation
- Fully Equipped Light Microscopy Facility
