Metropolitan State University of Denver Chemistry club is striving to open doors for new and current students to become more aware of the opportunities that are available within the department and the community.  Most students at the collegiate level do not realize how important it is to network in and outside of their higher education, therefore the chemistry club makes every effort to bridge this gap.  Through collaboration with all chemistry faculty and student research opportunities, hands-on experience, internships, and future job opportunities are all attainable.  A community outreach program, such as visually impaired students in chemistry awareness retreat, brings about opportunities to those who otherwise thought the field of science was unattainable.  Through demonstrations of science principles for adolescents, we are able to generate excitement and enthusiasm in the field of chemistry.  Events such as Earth Day, National Chemistry Week, and demonstrations for other younger groups of students, have brought delight to an otherwise intimidating subject hopefully inspiring a future wave of scientists.
