Chemical Analysis Laboratory
Chemical Analysis Laboratory
The School of Chemistry and Materials Science has a variety of instrumentation that allows undergraduate and graduate students to gain valuable hands-on experience with a wide selection of equipment. Students are allowed to explore and solve chemical problems in their research and laboratory experiences at RIT.
To sign up for instrument time, please use the Clustermarket Scheduling System.
If you do not have an account then email Tom Allston, Instrument Laboratory Manager.
There is a yearly fee of $50.00 per user before being added to our Scheduling System. This is for internal users only that wish access to our instruments through the Scheduler.
