Overview

As the field of chemistry undergoes significant advancements — the growing importance of interdisciplinary research, the integration of artificial intelligence, and an increasing emphasis on sustainability, among others — the undergraduate chemical sciences curricula must evolve. We must ensure that students are well-prepared to meet the demands of the new market. 
With that in mind, NC State and its Integrative Sciences Initiative are excited to hold a one-day ChemEd Summit that aims to bring together members from the industrial, academic and state and federal chemical sciences community.

Date: March 8, 2024
Time: 8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Location: NC State University, Talley Student Union, Coastal Ballroom

The event will have the following goals:

• Identify the essential knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) required in the dynamic landscape of the chemical/molecular sciences today
• Collaboratively develop a shared vision for the future of chemical/molecular sciences education, considering the evolving needs and challenges in the field
• Outline practical steps and initiatives that can be taken to realize our shared vision for advancing chemical sciences education in collaboration with the broader campus and industrial community
