Research

As a dynamic university, research at Western is central to our activities as it enhances teaching and learning, and enriches the experiences of  students and faculty.

At Western, both undergraduate and masters-level students are actively engaged in faculty directed, chemical research.  We recognize that undergraduate research promotes both student involvement and high academic expectations.  In addition, our masters program provides a supportive environment for students to continue their growth as scientists. 

In 2006, Western established the Advanced Materials Science and Engineering Center (AMSEC).  AMSEC's mission is to encourage and support cross-disciplinary research and education at Western in the field of materials science and to promote collaboration among its members. Currently AMSEC involves about ten faculty from three academic departments.
