Auburn Local Section

American Chemical Society

Welcome

Welcome to the Auburn local ACS section, encompassing 17 counties in Alabama and 4 counties in Georgia. Our local section serves a diverse membership and is committed to promoting greater interaction among chemists located in the Southeast. The Auburn section stresses the mentorship of future chemists with outreach into K-12, by providing travel stipends for students to attend national and regional ACS meetings, in bringing dynamic speakers to regional institutions, and by conducting novel workshops such as the “Instant Supercomputer!” workshop at SERMACS 2009. Our group is run exclusively by volunteers who are excited and motivated by chemistry and strive to provide substantial benefits to our membership. Please contact us with suggestions for new content for the site or with new outreach ideas.
