Any ugrad chem majors wanna tell me what they love/hate before I SIR?

Well i have no idea how SD is like as a chem major but there’s a lot of research opportunities here. You can research at materials department or chem department or even other departments if you have the motivation and passion for research. I personally learned to not like chemistry after all because of upper division classes but thats just me. Everyone else seemed to be loving it. I had a lot of research opportunities at our amazingly well known materials department and that is the reason I wanted to pursue materials science after undergrad rather than chemistry. Other than that, our chemistry department is pretty strong and there’s a lot of respectable professors in our department so id say visit both campuses if possible and see whats it like.
