Research

The Chemistry Department is consistently named a "superior performing department" in research and teaching at UNT. Department research is supported by the National Science Foundation, U.S. Departments of Energy and Education, the Semiconductor Research Corporation, the Welch Foundation, the American Chemical Society - Petroleum Research Fund, and many other federal and industrial sources.The research interests of the chemistry faculty span the traditional areas of analytical, inorganic, organic, physical chemistry and chemical education. Increasingly, however, new frontiers fall at the intersections of two or more of these areas. As a result, interdisciplinary studies are encouraged. There are several groups of faculty who collaborate in particular specializations: these areas of focus include computational, materials and organometallic chemistry.
