Chemistry

Program Highlights:

Chemistry is the study of matter; its composition, the changes it undergoes, and the accompanying changes in energy. The Department of Chemistry at the Mount challenges students in their course work to be both analytical and creative. Small class sizes, and in many cases, the opportunity to participate in research prepares undergraduate students for their future endeavors. 

Chemistry Major and Chemistry Joint Honours programs are accredited by the Canadian Society for Chemistry.
