Analytical Chemistry Programs Ranked Among the Best
"We're quite pleased that our stellar program in analytical chemistry is again ranked No. 2," said Jeffrey S. Vitter, former Dean of the College of Science. "We also made very positive gains in computer science, rising two points, and we expect even more gains when our new Lawson Computer Science Building, with its state-of-the-art facilities, opens this year.
