Beaupre Center for Chemical and Forensic Sciences was occupied by the Chemistry Department in the summer of 2016. The four-floor, 133,000 square foot facility is energy efficient, earning a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold rating, and serves both the teaching and research function for the Department of Chemistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Levels one and two have three teaching classrooms with the latest multimedia capabilities. There are eight teaching labs for general chemistry, five organic chemistry labs, and one advanced labs used by upper level chemistry courses. Every student in the teaching labs works in ventilated space increasing the safety for every occupant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The building has 34 research laboratory modules assigned to faculty to pursue research. Research lab modules are designed using advanced safety equipment including low flow fume hoods, ventilated storage cabinets, and multiple snorkels. The Teknor-Apex laboratory houses shared research instrumentation, which is well-equipped owing to a generous matching program offered to the Chemistry Department by Shimadzu Corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the Beaupre Center has a number of meeting areas available for students led by the Chemistry Learning Center, where the Chemistry Department offers tutoring for introductory chemistry courses weekdays throughout each semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The state-of-the-art Richard E.
