Most chemists are involved either in research and development or production of
materials. A graduate might work in a laboratory performing laboratory
procedures and operating sophisticated instruments for material analysis.
Chemistry always provides new challenges such as in the areas of superconductors
and material sciences. Chemists are developing new ceramics polymer alloys and
other materials to satisfy unique performance requirements and consumer needs.
The need for laboratory analysis in production quality control and environmental
testing in government and industry could provide a diversity of careers. Not all
