Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society

The Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society (ACS) is open to all undergraduates and graduate students with an interest in chemistry. The ACS is an association of professional and academic chemists and chemical engineers composed of local chapters.

Advantages of Student Chapter membership include the establishment of a support structure of friends and faculty within the chemistry department and The University of Alabma. Opportunities for exposure to professional aspects of chemistry and for involvement in the community are also enhanced. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors can gain leadership experience by becoming SAACS officers.

Any undergraduate with an interest in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering is welcome to participate with SAACS. Chemistry majors and minors are strongly encouraged to join. Membership to the national ACS organization is encouraged but not required.
