The Geology faculty offers a range of field-based introductory courses each year, with focuses including environmental geology and climate change.

The two are among 496 scholarship recipients from an application pool of over 5,000 nationwide.

Haoyi Wang ’19, a mathematics major with a minor in music performance from Chengdu, China describes her senior capstone experience for her degree.

Carleton students showcase structural biology at the Science Museum of Minnesota, using 3D models to explain molecular structures and their roles in human health.

International collaboration is a hallmark of Deborah Gross’s and Tsegaye Nega’s teaching.

Rou-Jia Sung and Andrew Wilson have developed a new augmented reality app.

Julianne Pyron ’19 shares insights on her chemistry Comps project, discussing her research process, the challenges of thesis work, and her academic journey.

Sam Stevenson ’19, a physics/mathematics major from Salt Lake City, spent the summer of 2018 working closely with associate professor of physics Marty Baylor.

Jessica Makori ’19 has collaborated with chemistry professor Joe Chihade to do meaningful research as an undergraduate.

Matt Whited, Associate Professor of Chemistry, published a paper in Organometallics with Jim Zhang ’18 entitled, “Synthesis and Reactivity of Pincer-Type Cobalt Silyl and Silylene Complexes.” The paper represents the first fruits of a collaboration with the Ozerov group at Texas A&M University and is an exciting example of the first-ever chemical compound featuring a cobalt-silicon double bond. These fundamental advances have laid the groundwork for ongoing studies into how abundant and sustainable metals like cobalt can be coaxed into transforming carbon dioxide and other pollutants into useful products.
