Due to the generosity of our alumni and friends, scholarships and awards are presented annually to our top chemistry students, based on academic achievement, service to the department, and area of academic interest. Additionally through donations and pledges, the department is able to maintain funds to help support student travel to national conferences. See application information.
In recent years, the generosity of our alumni and friends has been truly outstanding, again reaching over $20,000 in contributions for the 2007 calendar year. By giving to the department, you are helping to support our students and the future of our program. Please know that your gifts are much appreciated.
Towards the end of each spring semester, the NIU Chemistry Club sponsors an awards banquet, recognizing students who have received departmental scholarships and awards throughout the year. To view photos from our most recent banquet, please visit 2008 Awards Banquet.
