Advancing Inorganic Chemistry through Community Engagement

The Division of Inorganic Chemistry, a division of The American Chemical Society, is dedicated to advancing the field of inorganic chemistry through supporting its practitioners and purveyors. The Division works to build and maintain relationships among inorganic chemists, arrange inorganic chemistry programs at professional meetings, and promote the teaching of inorganic chemistry at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Our combined passion and dedication has made our organization the oldest Inorganic Chemistry organization in North America.
