Available Faculty Positions

The department seeks to fill a tenure-track position in forensic chemistry at the assistant professor level.

Scholarship Update

Due to shortage of certain monetary funds, we cannot offer the Frank Milio Book Award or the Linda Sweeting Undergrad Research Stipend for the academic years of 2011 and 2012.

Chairperson's Welcome

Welcome to Towson Chemistry students, faculty, staff, alumni and other visitors!!

The Department is on the move, with new academic programs, growing enrollments, a number of energetic young faculty (and some seasoned veterans) and facilities under renovation.

We offer at the undergraduate level the Chemistry major with two tracks (General and Professional/ACS Certified), Chemistry Secondary Education, Forensic Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry (Dual Degree program with the University of Maryland Baltimore School of Pharmacy). We also have a Masters in Forensic Science and participate in several interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate programs. Our total number of undergraduate majors is about 330 and there are over 30 Forensic Science graduate students — a sizeable increase in recent years.

Best regards,
Richard S. Preisler
Chairperson
