The American Chemical Society is the largest scientific society in the world, serving more than 157,000 members globally, providing educational and career development programs, products and services.
Duquesne University has a student member ACS chapter, which is a social and service organization open to all science majors who strive to attain academic and professional success at Duquesne.
The Duquesne ACS Student Members Chapter is one of the most successful student organizations on campus, growing from 12 members in 2008 to 100 members in 2017.
