Introduction: <<化學系>> 國立清華大學化學系成立於民國55年。大學部的課程設計重點在於給予學生堅實的化學學科基礎，並鼓勵同學們拓展自己在其他學科領域的知識。在研究所的課程方面，我們強調的則是學生必須要能保持不斷的學習新知及實驗想法的精神，以期呈現出創新的研究成果。 本系新館內設有現代化的教學、研究實驗、教室及老師、學生辦公室。館內並設置有多部系上及貴重儀器中心之大型共用儀器。 除了新館的空間之外，還有化學二館可供教學、研究及儀器設置。另外並設有一功能齊全之化學圖書館，訂有國內外重要化學期刊及雜誌，提供師生們閱讀。 系上定期邀集國內外知名演講人及於學術研究有重大貢獻的學者，舉辦學術研討會及講座活動，提供研究所及大學部同學發表研究成果的機會，以豐富他們在化學各個研究領域的知識發展。

The Department of Chemistry was founded in 1966. The department instills upon its students a solid foundation in the science of chemistry and actively encourages them to extend their studies into other fields of science and disciplines. As part of the graduate curriculum, emphasis is placed on innovative research through continued learning and experimenting with new ideas and concepts. The Chemistry Building is home to the Regional Instrument Center. Additional space for research, teaching, and instruments is available in the adjacent Chemistry II Building. A compact and well-stocked library provides both hard copy and electronic access to major periodicals and publications expected of in any major university. As a reflection of the outstanding research and development being carried out in the department, many of the faculty members have been distinguished with awards from the National Science council, Chemical Society in Taiwan, Department of Education, and the University.
