Students in this major are offered abundant research opportunities both during the academic year and during the summer months. Faculty are engaged in research projects which lend themselves to undergraduate participation. In tackling the challenge of advanced and independent laboratory work, students begin to understand the nature of science and the scientific method. Participation in research by all students is strongly encouraged, as it builds a greater appreciation of the nature of their chosen field. The opportunity to perform independent research has motivated many students to continue their education either in an accredited graduate program or in a professional school in a number of medical fields.

Often, faculty and students jointly present their research results at national professional meetings, the Rider Independent Scholarly Research & Creative Activities Presentations (ISCAP) Day, or as written research papers submitted to scholarly journals.

The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) program has been approved by the American Chemical Society (ACS), which means that it is nationally recognized as providing adequate experimental skills, oral and written communication skills, and knowledge that prepares students to be future professionals in the chemical sciences.
