Chemistry

<p>Which schools have outstanding chemistry departments?</p>

<p>I'm not sure how outstanding these schools are, but my advisor gave me a list of schools to check out as I am planning to major in chemistry. The list included Kansas State, Indiana, Purdue, Texas A&M, UCLA, University of Delaware, Georgia, Nebraska, UNC-Chapel Hill, OU, USC, UT-Austin, and University of Washington. Again I'm not really sure how outstanding the departments are, but I looked into the schools and some look like they would fit me well. I think he obtained the list from somewhere on the College Board site. Good luck with your search for the perfect school.</p>

<p>I'm looking to possibly major in Chemistry as well- Cabrini is a small liberal arts school but they are finishing a brand new science building which looks gr8! It has all brand new labs, etc. sounds good 2 me :)</p>

<p>according to us news (online), the best graduate schools for chem are berkeley, caltech, and harvard

<p>Check out <a href="http://web.reed.edu/ir/phd.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://web.reed.edu/ir/phd.html&lt;/a> for percentage ranking of PhD's by academic field, conferred upon graduates of the listed institutions. You'll notice the vast majority of these undergrad institutions are LAC's. A research university's high graduate ranking in the field does not necessarily translate to a fabulous undergrad education in the same discipline.</p>

<p>two thumbs up for Berkley, but i want to study at MIT since they have financial aid for internationals</p>
