Professor Terry Miller’s research group has one or two research positions open for undergraduates with an interest in physical chemistry and a strong mathematical background. The group’s research focuses on the spectroscopic detection and characterization of reactive chemical intermediates of importance in atmospheric and combustion chemistry. More specifics regarding the research can be found here.

Research support is provided by a Dreyfus Foundation grant. This funding is normally reserved for the summer, but class credit, e.g. CHEM 4998H, can be earned during the academic year. This program has been on-going for 3 years and the last two undergraduates involved each made research presentations at more than one international meeting, prepared a senior thesis, and are now working for their Ph.D.’s in Chemistry at M.I.T. and UC, Berkeley, respectively.

Interested students should email Professor Miller (miller.104@osu.edu) and include a brief summary of their relevant experience, including class work. The plan would be for the selected students to enroll in undergraduate research for spring semester and then have a research position funded for the summer.
