Faculty Research

Faculty members are involved in physical and analytical research, and some are focusing on biochemistry. Faculty explore how environmental chemistry can answer questions in environmental science. We also have faculty conducting research with students in organic and inorganic chemistry.

Chemistry Students at a hood

Students are strongly encouraged to participate in faculty guided research during their time at Ball State.

Check out our summer research program and consider doing research for credit during the academic career. These experiences could help lead to internships.

We maintain relationships with many companies in our region. These vital lines of communication have the potential to help our students find both internship opportunities and employment after graduation.

In addition, many of these companies have contributed to our department in the form of instrumentation and/or resources. These contributions have allowed us to substantially improve the student experience in our department.
