Facilities
The Department of Chemistry at 色色啦 Michigan maintains state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities on the campus of 色色啦 Michigan University.
Teaching facilities
One of the newest buildings on campus, the Chemistry Building presents students with spacious classroom and laboratory environments which accommodate physical chemistry, organic chemistry and instruction in advanced instrumental methods.
The building offers research workspace suitable for advanced biochemistry, quantitative analysis and chemistry coursework for health professionals. Space is also allocated for student groups of the College of Arts and Sciences. Classrooms include three auditoriums used for chemistry and general education instruction.
In order to preserve green space around this central portion of the University campus, all building services and utilities are delivered to the building through an underground tunnel that connects with a nearby loading dock.
