Instrumentation Lab

The Chemistry Department Instrumentation Lab holds a variety of major instrumentation which is shared by all members of the department. The equipment in this room is used for upper level student labs and for faculty and student research. Other equipment resides in the General Chemistry Instrumentation Lab, the Organic Chemistry Instrumentation Lab, the Molecular Modeling Lab, and in individual faculty research labs. A list of the equipment found in this room appears below the pictures.
