If you don't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to contact Dr. Paul Deck, Director of Graduate Studies (pdeck@vt.edu). If you are interested in pursuing an undergraduate degree in chemistry, you will find what you need at the Undergraduate Program website. For additional information on the undergraduate program, please contact Prof. Gordon Yee (gyee@vt.edu), the Director of Undergraduate Studies.
We have an outstanding group of faculty and staff devoting their energies to helping the department meet its missions of education, research and outreach. To find out about the research, teaching and other activities of our faculty and staff, I welcome you to visit our faculty and staff web pages.
I welcome any questions and comments about the Department and these web pages. You can contact me by email (jtanko@vt.edu) or by phone (540-231-6687) and even the old, traditional paper letter is welcome. I will try to keep the home page up to date with the latest news and information about the department and its people, so please come back regularly to keep abreast of the activities of the department.
