Chemistry Undergraduate Programs

 Bachelor of Science in Chemistry -  Materials Chemistry Specialization

Materials chemistry is focused on the preparation and characterization of pure chemicals or chemical systems that have some unique function. This function can be dependent on the material's optical, electronic, magnetic or catalytic properties. The materials chemistry option at IIT draws from all five of the basic areas of chemistry to lay the foundation for understanding the synthesis, structure, characterization and applications of materials. A particularly strong emphasis at IIT is programmatic access to advanced x-ray crystallographic instrumentation to study the structure of inorganic-based materials in the solid state.
