How can you help?

Here are some ideas of things you could do for current students:

• Answer an email from a current student
• Send in info on how the program helped you
• Advice for the program on what it can add or change to benefit its students
• Come to campus to talk about what you do
• Offer a day, week, or summer when a student could come and observe you at work
• Offer internships (both for credit and paid) for B.S. and/or M.S. students
• Take part in mock interviews to help students prep to find jobs

All gifts to the Department of Chemistry are deeply appreciated.
