I'm the person who asked about careers in chemistry, and I just want to say thank you to you and @centralscience for your wonderful answers! It got me thinking! Have a great day :)
Yay!!! Glad we could help!
Hope you're having fun visiting grad schools! Quick question about grad programs in the US - Does anyone do a Masters degree in Chemistry or other physical sciences? I often hear people talk about doing their PhD in Chem in the USA, but rarely MSc. It makes me worried that there are gonna be tons of PhD's in Chem that could have gotten by just fine with an MSc (that's an opinion though). Your thoughts? Also, what draws you to a PhD program over an MSc program?
Yep, Master’s programs in chemistry are totally still a thing here, but less.Just out of my friends and people I know, I noticed a lot of other sciences tend towards a Master’s (biochem, biology, computer science, etc) but a lot of chemists tend towards a PhD. The difference here is the research you do. In a Master’s program for chemistry, you mostly do classwork and have a little research. As we all unfortunately know, in the US you have to pay for your schooling, and most of the time for a Master’s program you also have to pay to attend school. Chemistry PhD programs here PAY your tuition (~$40-$50,000/year) AND give you a salary (in my experience $20-$35,000/year) to attend the school and earn your PhD. I think that’s a HUGE draw. If you can get paid to earn a PhD and feel competent, why not?
he first two years in a PhD track program you are taking classes as well as research. At the end of those two years you have to have some kind of exam of the research and progress you’ve made so far. If you pass, you get to be an official PhD candidate and just work on research until you’re allowed to graduate. If you fail too many times (sometimes they give you ore than one chance) you have to leave with your master’s degree. Research is also what funds the schools, so schools like PhD students more, and so there are more PhD track programs offered for chemistry than MS programs.
I like research a LOT so far, so I want to go to the full PhD. Also, for the jobs I know I’ll want to have, they require a PhD instead of a MS. Not going to lie, getting paid to get an education is also sweet. I do think we’re getting more and more saturated with chemistry PhDs, which could become a problem for job opportunities in the future, but I don’t think the field is really THAT more saturated than a normal job market. And more people getting higher education as a whole is still an awesome thing!

flame retardants (PBDEs, BFRs, OPFRs) Perfluorinated compounds (PFAS) Metabolomics Soil organic matter dissolved organic matter cloud condensation nuclei PAHs pesticides/herbicides
If anon still needs topics. ^^^
Alan Alda At #ACSIndy: The Public’s Blind Date With Science
Actor Alan Alda might be best known for his portrayal of Hawkeye Pierce on M*A*S*H, but these days he’s also becoming well-known in another capacity—as a science communicator. For those who lost track of him after his time sparring with Hot Lips Houlihan, this might seem odd...

centralscience said: I’m not too smart, but this is blowing my mind…. If it’s less dense, it should be floating on top at least a little. If it’s more dense, it should be sitting at the bottom. Can it be equally dense??
In reference to THIS post, the biggest thing to realize is that the golf ball appears to be floating in water, and anyone who plays golf will tell you that golf balls sink in water. However the golf ball in the picture is in saltwater. The amount of salt in the water will determine how buoyant the golf ball is. If I added more salt I could get the golf ball to float on top of the water column, and if I added more water I could get the golf ball to float in the middle of the water column. That shows that buoyancy isn't black and white (float or sink) but it's a continuum. Just like how objects can have a myriad of different densities.

I just finished my last pchem course! Just know that there’s hope! And the other side of that exam feels very good ;)
Thanks I'm just trying to study quantum really hard so I can manage to pass with C
centralscience replied to your post: So how exactly does majoring in chemistry work...
agreed agreed. my course schedule for chem is: 1st: Gen Chem I & II 2nd: Orgo I & II, Analytical I & II, Pchem I, Intro to Inorg 3rd: Advanced Orgo, Pchem II, Inorg I & II, Quantum Chem, Advanced Analytical lab, Nanosci lab 4th: mostly electives
centralscience replied to your post: At the University of Washington, we have two 400-level classes that focus on nuclear chemistry; one of them is just the lecture component and the other is the lab component. From what I can tell, most of the labs involve only minimal amounts of weakly radioactive compounds to do things like detection, scintillation, and radioactive labeling, among other things. Since pretty much the only people who could satisfy the prereqs are chem majors, there isn’t as much worry about inexperience.
All my freshman & sophomore chem lectures (except 1) had associated lab components that had to be taken with the lecture. In third year we choose to take 2 of 4 possible lab-only courses: Adv. Analytical, Nanosci, Adv. Orgo, Computational Chem
Thanks for sharing your experiences :)
