The American Chemical Society (ACS) offers a number of resources that supplement the curriculum. ACS collaborated with the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker to produce Introduction to Green Chemistry (18 a collection of six units that present key concepts in green chemistry. High-school students are the target audience for this resource, whose units incorporate hands-on activities such as a Vitamin C clock reaction. The ACS lab manual Greener Approaches to Undergraduate Chemistry Experiments (13) is available in both Spanish and Chinese. 

To make available, via a database [62], materials relating to undergraduate chemistry experiments which are educationally sound and have been evaluated by both students and academic staff. These materials consist of everything needed to introduce the experiment into another institution, as well as evaluation data relating to both the chemical and the educational aspects of the experiment.

Thomson s momentous discovery of the electron 100 years ago this year is a story familiar to anyone who has enrolled in an undergraduate chemistry course. His experiments with cathode-ray tubes allowed him to determine the charge-to-mass ratio of the electron—with a mass some 1,000 times less than the smallest particle previously found—and to establish that it was a component of all matter. Thus Thomson earned a place in the annals of physics—and the honor of a centenary. We might also, however, take note of another contribution Thomson made, one that is not so widely known.

Practice in Education (CASPiE) program in Chapter 10. These modules provide first- and second-year students with access to research experiences as part of the mainstream general and organic chemistry curriculum create a collaborative research group environment for students in the laboratory provide access to advanced instrumentation for all members of the collaborative to be used for undergraduate research experiences and create a research experience that is engaging for women and for ethnic minorities and appropriate for use at various types of institutions, including those with diverse populations. 

Food chemists work in universities, government laboratories, and major food companies. To become a food chemist, most undergraduates take a food science degree with courses in chemistry. It is also possible to become a food chemist with an undergraduate chemistry degree plus experience in the food industry. Students can specialize in food chemistry at the graduate level.
