Conduct research, prepare speeches and give presentations while at the same time developing personal relationships with your professors who will help you reach your goals. This is how you have a graduate school experience at the undergraduate level. Whether you want to be in the lab or the field, you can get started right away. Our program combines strong academic rigor with hands-on research opportunism in the lab.

Through an interdisciplinary course - The Science of Art - you have the opportunity to study the chemical techniques used to produce, restore, and conserve art. In the Netherlands, you'll explore a variety of museums, and historical sites to apply this knowledge. The trip combines science, art, history, and culture of the area.
Heidelberg's Chemistry programs afforded me tremendously useful skills beyond just the curriculum and materials. I entered my Ph.D. program at an R1 university with the tools I needed to be prepared to take on dissertation research from coastal North Carolina with the National Science Foundation to being the youngest researcher in the Atlantic Ocean with a NASA project.
One of the best part of Heidelberg is getting to know and working with your professors. You'll be supported and challenged as you develop skills and experiences centered around research you're interested in.
