Welcome
Welcome to the Department of Chemistry at Wake Forest University. We are a group of 36 faculty and staff providing dynamic educational opportunities to our 65 undergraduate majors, 150 undergraduate minors and 32 graduate students that extend beyond the classroom to the research lab and the community. Our teaching and research are not limited by traditional definitions and occur both in the newly renovated Salem Hall on the Reynolda campus and at Wake Downtown in the Innovation Quarter. I invite you to come learn, investigate and join the team (chemistry@wfu.edu).
The top priorities of the Chemistry Department during the COVID-19 pandemic remain: 1) protecting the health and well-being and of students, faculty staff and their families, friend and communities and 2) delivering you the best educational experience as possible. This fall we are offering all of our planned courses in various modalities including face to face, blended and completely on-line. Most of our lab sections have some in-person component of learning with students in the labs under proper health and safety guidelines. Our faculty and staff have worked hard in preparing to make the 2020-2021 academic year the best it can be. I look forward to meeting or speaking with you soon.
S. Bruce King Kitchin Chair and Professor of Chemistry
