Alumni Testimonial
My time with the Chemistry and Physical Sciences Department at Pace well prepared me for doctorate level education. From my first year onward, I had many one-on-one encounters with professors with whom I built strong relationships, many experiences in the lab that fostered independence while still feeling supported by faculty, and many opportunities to do research and write about areas of chemistry that interested me outside of the classroom.
