Help support our Titan Scientists!!

We need your support!

Please donate to our graduate student scholarship fund!!!

• Our graduate students are working hard in the classroom, teaching laboratory and in the research laboratory.  The department of chemistry and biochemistry is committed to educating and mentoring our graduate students.  Please donate to enhance the education and training of our graduate students.  Your generous contributions will directly impact our graduate students as they complete their degree.  

Your impact

• Your gift will be used to provide scholarships to our graduate students.  The scholarships will offer much needed economic relief to our graduate students and allow them to devote more time to research and help them graduate in a timely manner.

Our department cherishes the graduate program and are dedicated to mentoring graduate students to become successful scientists.  The graduate students move on to great careers in industry or become passionate educators:

Chintan Amin, Director of Environmental Health and Safety, Soka University of America (MS chemistry, concentration in organic chemistry, 2010)

Crystal Vu, Manager, Clinical Operations at Cepheid (MS chemistry, concentration in biochemistry, 2015)

Masoud Roueintan, Professor, Mt. San Antonio College (MA chemistry, concentration in physical, 2014)

Christina Daniels, Senior Environmental Scientist, California Department of Food and Agriculture (MS chemistry, concentration in analytical, 2015)

Over the past few years the graduate students in the department of chemistry and biochemistry have received:

• Giles T. Brown Outstanding Thesis Award (Omar Muneeb, 2019, Haan Lab)
• CSUPERB Crellin Pauling Student Teaching award (Alex Ku, 2020, Salzameda lab)
• CSUPERB Don Eden Graduate student Research award finalist (Ryan Hicken, 2021, Salzameda lab)

With your generous support we can continue to educate and mentor graduate students who will become the teachers and scientists of the future.
