UIUC’s Chemistry PhD spans ultrafast spectroscopy, synthetic methodology, and computational discovery. Doctoral researchers synthesize chiral catalysts for green pharma, map excited-state dynamics in perovskites with attosecond lasers, and simulate enzyme tunnels on Blue Waters. Interdisciplinary clusters with Physics, Materials Science, and the Carle Illinois College of Medicine drive translational impact.
