Hands-on Learning
Chemistry is more than lectures and textbooks. At Humboldt, you gain real-world experience and learn by doing—in the classroom, in the labs, and in the field.
Hands-on learning forms the basis of our program. In our close-knit classrooms, you’ll get to know your professors and get real-world experience and first class instruction. And you’ll connect with your fellow students in ways you wouldn’t at other universities. Our instruction and facilities are top-notch, and are all available to undergraduate students.

Learn directly from your professors with one-on-one mentoring and advising, and welcoming, small classes.
Our students have the opportunity to specialize in a particular area of chemistry, preparing graduates for research positions in industry and governmental agencies. This is the type of program that sets you up for success, a fulfilling career.
Illumina is known for its next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies. As a manufacturing chemist within our fully functional nucleotide (FFN) team, my job is to synthesize, purify, and quantify our FFNs.
A degree in chemistry will provide a solid preparation for a broad range of occupations. A major factor influencing employability is preparation in a specialized field. We have active undergraduate research programs where you have the opportunity to specialize in a particular area of chemistry.
The research areas include: biochemistry, physical chemistry, molecular modeling, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, floral-scents, molecular electronics, marine chemistry, aqueous chemistry, trace metal analysis, and atmospheric chemistry.
