Become a leader in several challenging and in demand careers for today’s technology-oriented society.

Choose your focus. Whether that be in environmental chemistry, geochemistry, industrial chemistry, materials chemistry, or pharmaceutical chemistry. There are countless opportunities awaiting you!

Enjoy the many benefits of small class sizes. Such as greater interaction with professors, lab time, personal tutorial sessions, and a great group dynamic. Study at a post-secondary institution that puts you first!

Work on in-depth research projects with your professors, scientists on campus, in the local mining industry, at the Health Sciences North Research Institute, and the Northern Ontario School of Medicine.

Key Features

Participate in the co-op program to gain work experience in your field, network with potential employers, and get paid during your studies

Choose from many chemistry disciplines such as computational chemistry, electrochemistry, environmental chemistry, nanotechnology, surface chemistry, natural products chemistry, and nuclear waste management

Small classes provide unique opportunities: paid teaching assistantships, one on one instruction during labs, use of research-grade equipment

Career Opportunities

Research and development (academic, industrial), industrial quality assurance and quality control (e.g. steel, plastic, petrochemical, mining, food industries), environmental monitoring and remediation, drug testing, health professions (e.g. pharmacist, physician, dentist, veterinarian, etc), waste disposal consultant, sales representative for chemical products and equipment, science communication, science teacher.

Nationally-accredited programs include formal lectures and lab sessions providing a hands-on approach to instrumentation.
