Welcome
The Carlson School of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers programs for both undergraduate and graduate students. Undergraduates can choose between two tracks leading to a B.A. in Chemistry. The requirements for the two tracks are designed to allow students to choose their course work depending upon their ultimate career goals. The graduate program offers the degrees of master of arts and doctor of philosophy in the fields of bioinorganic, bioorganic, biophysical, inorganic, nuclear, organic, organometallic, physical, and polymer chemistry, and in molecular biology.
Although the department is small, with ten full-time faculty members, the research interests of the faculty are diverse, and opportunities for research in most of the important areas of chemistry are available. The rare combination of a small department and an active faculty with many and varied research interests offers the student a unique opportunity for an intellectually stimulating program in a close and friendly atmosphere.
The Chemistry Department at Clark has a strong commitment to research. Because of this, the department has been able to acquire specialized research equipment normally found only in much larger departments. Much of this equipment is physically located in the Sackler Sciences Center; however, the department also has ready access to a considerable amount of additional equipment at affiliated institutions in the greater Worcester area, mainly at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center and the Worcester Art Museum.
