Dean's Welcome
The College’s research programs are focused in five major areas: ecological sustainability, genomics, host-pathogen interactions, nanoscience and biomaterials, and sensory neuroscience. These programs, which are supported by $26M/year in external funding, not only lead to new discoveries, but also inform our undergraduate and graduate programs. |
Academic DepartmentsThere are four academic departments in the College of Chemical and Life Sciences at the University of Maryland: Each offers its own unique teaching, research, and outreach programs that contribute to the overall excellence of the College. Our faculty also participate in a wide variety of multidisciplinary research centers and institutes that bridge departments and colleges. |
