    The New York and North Jersey Local Sections of the American Chemical Society invite you to: ACS Chemistry Connections: Building Bridges Between Academia & Industry, a free evening of conversation and networking at CUNY Graduate Center in Manhattan The New York and North Jersey Local Sections of the American Chemical Society invite you to ACS Chemistry Connections: Building Bridges Between Academia & Industry, a free evening of conversation and networking at the CUNY Graduate Center in Manhattan. Local industry professionals will share their career journeys: how they moved from the classroom and the lab bench into roles across the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, the decisions that shaped their paths, and what they wish they had known earlier. After their remarks, panelists will take your questions, so come ready to ask about job searches, interviews, career pivots, or day-to-day life in industry. The panel will be followed by a networking reception with food and refreshments, giving you time to continue the conversation one-on-one with panelists and fellow attendees. The event is open to students and industry professionals and is free of charge. Seating is limited, so please register early. Register for ACS Chemistry Connections

  • New Jersey Chemistry Olympics is in Need of Sponsors

    NJIT NJ Chem Olympics, Dept of Chemistry and Environmental Science, 161 Warren Street, Tiernan Hall, Suite 151, Newark, United States

    Sponsor the next generation of New Jersey chemists The premier high school chemistry competition in New Jersey has been inspiring the next generation of scientists for 38 years. Each May, about 300 students from across the state come to NJIT to compete in hands-on laboratory, research, and communication events, judged by scientists from the university, industry, and the American Chemical Society. The NJ Olympics Program needs your help.  Sponsors give the Olympics a stable base, keep registration affordable for every school, and make possible what fees alone cannot. Why sponsor the Olympics Real chemistry. Students design experiments, build and calibrate instruments, write laboratory procedures, and defend their results under questioning from judges. Open to every school. Public, private, and magnet schools compete on the same terms. Sponsorship keeps the registration fee low so that clubs without district funding can take part. Contact with working scientists. Your scientists can judge, coordinate an event, and address 300 future chemists at the awards ceremony. Bristol Myers Squibb scientists judged in 2026. A recognized program. NJCO has received an ACS Salute to Excellence award and the 2022 ACS ChemLuminary Award. Ways to give Financial gifts.
