About Our Group

Our goal is to promote the advancement of green chemistry and sustainable design principles through the creation of a venue for the discussion and dissemination of information among students and faculty from diverse fields, including chemistry, engineering, toxicology, public health, public policy, business, and environmental science.

What we do:

  1. Host the annual Green Chemistry and Sustainable Design seminar series, which currently constitutes the only formal green chemistry education offered in the College of Chemistry.
  2. Organize regular journal club meetings, creating a venue for discussion and learning among graduate students.
  3. Attend relevant professional meetings and make sure academic chemists have a voice in the sustainability movement.
