Everyone is welcome, even if you are not a chemistry student by major!

The Graduate Student Society of Chemists (GSSC) is hosting an event to allow graduate students in chemistry to deliver 5 minute talks about an aspect of their research. Please come out to hear about the diverse research projects going on in our department.

Immediately following the 5-minute talks, the Graduate Student Society of Chemists (GSSC) is hosting a chemistry themed trivia night. Everyone is welcome to come and test their trivia skills all for the bragging rights of being first place.
We hope you’ll be celebrating National Chemistry Week with us!
