Meet Our Students

Introducing the College Ambassadors!

Meet Will and Meghan, the department's undergraduate Ambassadors for the College of Arts and Sciences. College Ambassadors are student volunteers who have been nominated by faculty and staff after demonstrating a commitment to academic excellence and community engagement.

“In addition to the many opportunities for research that the Chemistry Department provides, it offers a welcoming and encouraging home on campus for any student interested in exploring the field.”

Meghan Sullivan

"What I like most about the Department of Chemistry at UB are the resources to get involved in the chemistry community, such as UBChemClub, and the many opportunities to be involved in high-impact research as an undergraduate."

UB’s Department of Chemistry is home to students, staff, and faculty from around the world. We are proud of the extraordinary geographical and cultural diversity within the UB Chemistry Community! The map below highlights home towns of our graduate students, undergraduate majors, postdocs, staff, and faculty.
