Our instrument room, which is an essential part of our program, is well-equipped with computer-controlled, research-grade instruments. More importantly, our students get hands-on experience with them by their second year.

There are four faculty, all of whom have Ph.D. degrees. Their expertise spans the four major subdivisions of chemistry, and they share that expertise with their students through active undergraduate research programs. All are professionals who are truly dedicated to undergraduate education.

Our majors have been very successful in gaining entrance to graduate and professional programs and in obtaining jobs in the chemical industry or in secondary education. The vast majority are in positions for which their experiences at Alfred are an essential prerequisite.
