Graduate Research


Collaborative research with the Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Physics and Civil Engineering departments has provided us an excellent opportunity to execute multidisciplinary research. These collaborative efforts have resulted in many successful Ph. D. projects.

Prospective students interested in pursuing Ph.D. degree are encouraged to apply to the graduate program in Chemistry, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, or Physics.

Undergraduate Research


During the work term at the Notre Dame Radiation Laboratory, undergraduate students will have an opportunity to work on a research project under the supervision of a senior staff member. Throughout the term students are encouraged to pursue their own ideas and develop research skills that are useful in pursuing graduate studies.Work done by students in the past has often led to publications in the scientific journals. A good background in chemistry or chemical physics is desirable. In the past, the undergraduate students from various universities have conducted specialized research in the areas of nanoscience, photochemistry, photoelectrochemistry, radiation chemistry, light energy conversion, and environmental remediation.
