The Senior Program

All senior chemistry students work collaboratively with faculty members on research projects as part of the Senior Program. This intensive two-semester project combines original scientific research with reading and understanding the scientific literature. It culminates in a Senior Thesis that is defended in a public presentation to departmental faculty and student chemistry majors.

Recent projects in chemistry include:

  • Characterization of PaaA and PaaB Activity in Pantocin A Biosynthesis Toward Structural Determination of Key Species
  • Developing a Photoredox-Catalyzed Radical Allenylation Mechanism
  • Enhancing CO2 Electrocatalysis by Cobalt Phthalocyanine Through Electrostatic Interactions With Cationic ROMP Copolymers
  • Post-Annealing Immersion of Terbium Metal-Organic Frameworks in Silica Glass
  • Rational Design of Pyridine:Phenol Co-Polymers Immobilized in CoPc for the Electrocatalytic CO2RR
  • Reaction Optimization for Green Synthesis of Cardioactive Peptide
  • The Design of Materials for the Facilitation of Electrochemical Reactions
  • Using MOF-303 to Filter Synthetic Dyes From Water
  • Benchmarking Electrocatalytic Polymers for the CO2RRc
