SBU Chemistry Department Ranked 9th in Nation for R&D Funding by NSF.
WELCOME
Welcome to the Department of Chemistry at Stony Brook University. Our department offers unsurpassed opportunities for world-class research across a broad range of chemical fields. With over forty faculty, we have a reputation for excellence in teaching in addition to research. Our close relationship with Brookhaven National Lab and the Stony Brook Hospital reflects the strong interdisciplinary aspect of our department. As an indication of the recent growth and success of research within the department, we have moved from 46th in the nation in total R&D funding in 2006 to 9th in 2011, bypassing Harvard, Stanford, Cornell, Johns Hopkins and other peer universities during this period.
