  • GRADUATE STUDY in CHEMISTRY Rice University Graduate Study At
    Graduate Study at The Department of Chemistry at Rice University provides a uniquely stimulating environ- GRADUATE STUDY ment for scientific research. In addition to the classical research areas of organic, inorganic, IN CHEMISTRY physical and theoretical chemistry, interdisciplinary research has long been a central focus at Rice University Rice. We have minimal barriers between departments, and work that spans science and engi- neering is particularly facile here. Most chemistry faculty members hold joint appointments with other departments, including bioengineering, biochemistry and cell biology, chemical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, physics and astronomy, computer science, and mechanical engineering and materials science. We have a close relationship with Baylor College of Medicine, and many of our labs address problems in bio-organic, bio-inorganic, bio-materials and bio-physical chemistry. The collaborative environment at Rice was critical to the development of nanotechnolgy, having facilitated the work of two of the first Nobel laureates in the area. Nanotechnology has blossomed into a major strength of the department, which houses one of only six National Science Foundation-funded centers for nanoscale sci- ence and engineering. Students are encouraged to visit the Department of Chemistry Web page for more detailed information about faculty research. Immersed in this environment of scientific discovery, the graduate program is designed to de- velop students’ ability to conduct independent, creative, scientific research and cultivate habits of inquiry that will ensure continued intellectual development throughout their careers. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The degree requirements at Rice are designed to maximize the number and quality of doctoral Rice University students’ publications. Formal course requirements are unusually flexible: six one-semester Department of Chemistry courses in any relevant area of science or engineering.

  • Georgia State University Complete College Georgia
    2016 Status Report Georgia State University Complete College Georgia Overview When it comes to higher education, the vision of the United States as a land of equal opportunity is far from a reality. Today, it is eight times more likely that an individual in the top quartile of Americans by annual household income will hold a college degree than an individual in the lowest quartile.1 Nationally, white students graduate from college at rates more than 10 points higher than Hispanic students, and are more than twice as likely to graduate with a 4-year college degree compared to black students.2 The United States Department of Education cites a six-year graduation-rate of 39% among Pell-eligible students,3 a rate that is 20 points lower than the national average.4 In 2003, Georgia State’s institutional graduation rate stood at 32% and underserved populations were foundering. Graduation rates were 22% for Latinos, 29% for African Americans, and 18% for African American males. Pell students were graduating at rates far below those of non-Pell students. Today, thanks to a campus-wide commitment to student success and more than a dozen strategic programs implemented over the past several years, Georgia State’s achievement gap is gone. The graduation rate for bachelor-degree seeking students has improved 22 points—among the highest increases in the nation over this period (Chart 1). (See Appendix for all charts.) Rates are up 36 points for Latinos (to 58%), and 29 points for African Americans (to 58%). Pell-eligible students currently represent 58% of Georgia State University’s undergraduate student population, and over the past three years have graduated at rates, on average, equal to those of non-Pell students.

  • CLEAN WATER HEROES Georgia Tech TANYARD CREEK Georgia Tech Campus Captures Stormwater to Conserve Water and Protect Urban Stream
    Georgia’s 2017 CLEAN WATER HEROES Georgia Tech TANYARD CREEK Georgia Tech Campus Captures Stormwater to Conserve Water and Protect Urban Stream INTRODUCTION: When Chattahoochee Riverkeeper was looking for a way to show a group of intown Atlanta residents how to use green infrastructure to manage stormwater at a proposed neighborhood park, they had to look no further than the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology. Georgia Tech has been a leader in green TANYARD infrastructure since it built its first LEED certified building in 2003. Since then, CREEK the Institute has taken on the challenge of managing the rain that falls on the campus. Now that rain is collected and conserved, and the campus has become a veritable zoo of green infrastructure projects that save water and keep pollution out of local streams. The campus’ green solutions to stormwater runoff are so numerous, faculty and students have even developed a smartphone app that allows anyone to take a virtual tour of Tech’s innovative approaches to managing stormwater. THE WATER BODY: In 1888, when Georgia Tech opened its doors, Tanyard Creek flowed through what was then undeveloped property west of Georgia Tech’s iconic Tech Tower building. When thunderstorms rattled over Tech students in those days, the rain hit the ground and seeped slowly into it and eventually to Tanyard Creek. Over the course of the next century as the Institute and Atlanta grew in unison, Tanyard was slowly piped and buried. Today, almost 70 percent of the land surrounding Tanyard Creek is covered in concrete, asphalt and buildings.

  • Georgia State University 2020 Campus Plan
    Georgia State 2020 Campus Plan: Voter Engagement University SUMMARY As Director of Student Civic Engagement at Georgia State University, it is my pleasure to share with you our campus plan for voter engagement. With the pandemic, and subsequent push to online learning and engagement there is an even greater need to create a collaborative plan to reach our students about the importance of voting. After all, traditional methods of setting up voter registration tables, visiting classes, and so on- are no longer feasible. Students quickly tired of online engagement, and social media outlets and emails became flooded. So how do we reach our students with the education and tools they need to vote? What is our best strategy? Our strategy developed very quickly. First our Student Civic Engagement team set out to “find our people”. I think we would all agree that, once we started looking, we have A LOT of people who share in our mission to engage students in the democratic process. Next, we chose one main message to send to students: visit vote.gsu.edu. By using one main site- one main message- we hope to our message is loud and clear. Other strategies include collaborative events and marketing and having a “vote early” push. After the November 3rd election, we plan to report and celebrate all our accomplishments together. Through the creation of our voter engagement plan, we created a large collaborative working group, one which I hope will become institutionalized as a CLDE committee. I am very excited for what we can do as a collaborative team.
