        SAACS is a chemistry organization at LSU, but we are open to students in all scientific fields.  Our membership includes undergraduates in chemistry, chemical engineering, biochemistry, biological sciences, physics, and other disciplines.

       SAACS is focused on two things -- to prepare undergraduates for their future careers and to spread an interest for science in the community.  The chapter meets twice each month to hear about current research by distinguished scientists, and members travel to regional and national conferences to present their own work.  We also give chemistry demonstrations at local schools and city-wide events.  Click on the links below to learn more about our chapter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Super Science Saturday!

This event was a raving success!  We're very thankful to the volunteers who came to help present demos and all of the community members who stopped by to learn some really cool science! 

Chem in the Classroom

If you're interested in volunteering or if you would like us to come to your school, contact Richard at rrucke1@lsu.edu
