About Us

The stockroom unit is divided into three distinct subdivisions: the General Chemistry Stockroom, the Organic Chemistry Stockroom, and the Upper Division Stockroom. Each stockroom is managed directly by its own Stockroom Manager and indirectly by the Senior Stockroom Manager. The stockroom staff consist of some of the brightest, most dedicated, and most driven undergraduate students from a variety of different science disciplines. Amongst the disciplines are: chemistry, biomedical engineering, biology, chemical engineering, earth system science, and public health.

The stockroom unit provides logistical support and consultation to faculty, TAs, and undergraduate students. We pride ourselves in our ability to solve problems and to assist.
