FACULTY & STAFF
How to Find Us
The Department of Chemistry administrative offices are located in Clapp Hall, room 212. If you're familiar with campus, the easiest way to find it is to take the Hovorka Atrium elevator to the second floor of Clapp. Exit the elevator to the right. The door to room 212 is at the end of the corridor.
Entrance
The main entrance to the Pytte Science Center is through Hovorka Atrium. Clapp Hall is to the left. This view is from across Adelbert Road.
