Instrument Lab

Majors & Minors

Our Analytical Instrumentation Laboratory offers science students the opportunity to have extensive hands-on experience with state-of-the-art chemical instrumentation.

Located in Concordia’s department of chemistry, these instruments are routinely used by students at all levels for both instructional and research activities.

The laboratory was created with generous funding from the National Science Foundation, the Veden Foundation, the Pittsburgh Conference and Concordia College.
