Thomas Jefferson University - INTO USA

Learn chemistry in the context of global issues and participate in research early on in the BS in Chemistry program. Faculty members incorporate real-world data in the classroom, giving students a crucial combination of research and laboratory skills. You will be a sought-after candidate for scientific careers or graduate programs, thanks to professional research and presentation experience, and close faculty mentorship. This active and collaborative program will prepare you for what’s next. You start collecting chemical knowledge and skills through core courses and shadowing faculty and upper-level student researchers. As a sophomore, you will start helping with authentic, real-world research projects – experience many biochemistry students don’t get until graduate programs. This is possible thanks to the individual attention you get in our small classes and our well-equipped research laboratories. Your evolution as a researcher culminates with your senior research project, a year-long exploration into a pressing scientific issue that encapsulates the scientific process – with final presentation at a scientific conference, where you get valuable feedback from peers and professionals in the scientific community.
In our rigorous program, our faculty will help you become a sought-after candidate for whatever plans you may have. Jefferson alumni work in top-ranked pharmaceutical companies, continue education in national and international graduate programs, and become published and patent-receiving researchers. As a Jefferson chemistry graduate, any career in the chemical field is right at your fingertips.
