These aims of the department ore: i l ' to provide students ma|oring in chemistry with rigorous training in the principles and appli- cations of modern chemistry,- i2 ' to provide students interested in the teaching profession an opportunity to become ac- quainted with the teaching of science, and l3i to offer stu- dents interested in advanced study or m industrial employ- ment professional training in chemistry. The department is approved by the American Chemical Society and may grant certified ACS degrees to qualified students. The curriculum is one of diversified study with emphasis placed upon a rounded education. General inorganic, gener- al organic, and analytical chemistry are basic required courses for all students in the department. Forty-four semes- ter hours are available. In the students ' junior and senior years of college, through a special problems course, majors in chemistry are able to pursue the study of a specific project of their own choice involving individual laboratory work, written reports on their research, and seminars. A special feature of Lebanon Valley ' s Chemistry Depart- ment is its summer research program in which the faculty and selected students participate. In this program faculty and students work each summer on a number of problems in chemical research. Both the faculty and the students have re- ceived support from the National Science Foundation and from the Petroleum Research Fund of the American Chemical Society. These two sources of old also help in the purchasing of equipment for the department. Another association with the American Chemical Society IS the Student Affiliate Chapter of this professional organi- zation. The Lebanon Valley College Affiliate Chapter has monthly business meetings in which the members learn through guest speakers of areas of interest and possible future schooling or employment. Field trips to industrial sites help acquaint the chemistry ma|ors with areas of employment and attempt to show the activities of the professional chemist in his scientifc society. Employment is available in graduate schools, industry, high school and college teaching, and government work. 16
