<p>Certain state universities make it attractive to attend their schools with lots of merit aid.</p>
<p>However, you want your child to get a good education. </p>
<p>does anyone know the quality of the chemistry department at:</p>
<p>1) Univ of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg
2) University of alabama at Huntsville
3) University of Louisiana in Baton Rouge
4) University of Texas in Gainesville
5) universityof Texas at Austin (not lower tier at all at #44)
6) Universityof Iowa
7) Iowa State
8) University of Oklahoma</p>
<p>Is there a lot of equipment to support/encourage undergraduate research?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
