The Susan M. Kauzlarich Undergraduate Award in Inorganic Chemistry
This award provides a summer research stipend for two chemistry majors (continuing students of junior or senior standing) whose research is focused on inorganic chemistry. Up to two awards of $2000.00 each. Applications are accepted during the Winter/Spring quarter each year for presentation of awards in the Spring.
The Marilyn M. Olmstead Student Excellence Award in X-Ray Crystallography
This award provides a research stipend for one undergraduate chemistry major of junior or senior standing whose research is focused X-Ray Crystallography. Up to $1,000 is awarded. This award was established by and in honor of the retirement of Marilyn M. Olmstead, professor of chemistry at UCD. Olmstead is a world-renowned crystallographer, a scientist who determines - via a picture created through x-ray diffraction - the geometric structure of new molecules chemists have formed. Applications are accepted during the Winter/Spring quarter each year for presentation of awards in the Spring.
ACS Undergraduate Award in Inorganic Chemistry
