The California State University Northridge (CSUN) student chapter of the ACS serves as a student-operated organization that drives the student interests of chemistry beyond the classroom experience. We achieve this central goal through outreach, meetings and collaboration with other professional chapters on campus. Outreach events allow students to obtain experience in preparing and presenting technical material before non-scientific audiences. Our work cultivates a future generation of diverse scientists by promoting interest through engagement in STEM. We do this through year round scientific demonstrations, on and off campus. The importance of outreach is that it serves as a supplement to science classes by further intriguing and engaging future generations of scientists. Meetings are held to secure the intellectual stimulation that arises from professional association as well as foster cooperation among members while accomplishing a goal. Collaboration allows members to build a network, enhance the college experience campus wide, all while preparing members for successful careers in science. This ACS student chapter has a history of immense collaborative effort. With multiple other CSUN professional societies biannual research panels, symposia and STEM mixers are held. The club intends to involve its members in national conferences like the ACS conference, and share what they learned with other members. The CSUN ACS student chapter hopes to continue to serve our community.
