GSO - UMASS ACS PMSE POLY Student Chapter

Welcome to the UMass Amherst ACS PMSE/POLY Student Chapter page! Our goal is to provide opportunities for students to facilitate their growth scientifically and professionally, through activities including professional development events, seminar series, and company tours/talks. We will work in conjunction with existing groups within the UMass PSE department, including hosting social events for graduate students. These events will allow students, post-docs, faculty and staff an opportunity to interact in both academic and social settings and will be advertised in polymer-oriented departments. This organization will serve as an interdepartmental and inter-university tool for students to make connections with other institutions that conduct polymer and soft material research in order to inspire academic and research collaborations. In addition, our chapter will collaborate with other ACS PMSE/POLY student chapters in order to bring additional events to the UMass Amherst community.
