Bachelor of Science (BS), Chemistry
“The chemistry department at CSU prepared me to enter graduate school with a highly competitive resume. The department allowed me to work as a lab assistant from sophomore year to graduation. I also worked as an undergraduate research assistant, and publication resulted from this experience. A career fair at CSU connected me with a chemical lab in the Charleston area; I worked as an intern at this lab for over a year. None of my academic and work achievements would have been possible without the support and expertise of the chemistry department at Charleston Southern University.”
