ACS Organic Division Undergraduate Awards

Purpose of the Undergraduate Award

The ACS Division of Organic Chemistry is pleased to sponsor an Undergraduate Award in Organic Chemistry that is intended to recognize senior students who display a significant aptitude for organic chemistry and to encourage further interest in the field.

The Undergraduate Award

Consists of a letter of recognition from the ACS Division of Organic Chemistry and an award certificate signed by the division chair. Awardees who are members of the ACS will also receive membership to the Division of Organic Chemistry; those who are not will receive Affiliate status. Division affiliates have all of the benefits of membership in the division with the exception of voting, serving on committees, and eligibility for certain awards. For a full description of the benefits of membership in the division, please click here. Awardee’s will be recognized on the Division’s website.

Nominations for the Undergraduate Award

Institutions are invited to select a top graduating senior student majoring in either chemistry or biochemistry who has demonstrated excellence in organic chemistry based on a combination of research experience, coursework and a desire to pursue a career in chemistry.

Starting in 2022, we started to allow an additional nomination can be made for a graduating student deemed extraordinary by the department. The student(s) nominated should be enrolled at your institution for the current academic year. All schools may nominate a second extraordinary student when they include consideration in areas such as race, ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic status, non-traditional gender identification or sexual orientation, religious affiliation, or (dis)ability. The Division of Organic Chemistry shares ACS’ core value of diversity, equity, inclusion and respect, and “believes in the strength of diversity in all its forms, because inclusion of and respect for diverse people, experiences, and ideas lead to superior solutions to world challenges and advances chemistry as a global, multidisciplinary science.” Please note that data obtained by ACS on the gender of Bachelor’s level chemists indicates that women and men are graduating at nearly equal numbers since 2001. Therefore, the Division has removed gender as criteria for a second nomination for this award.

Additionally Institutions graduating more than 100 chemistry and biochemistry majors in the award year, may make up to three nominations of graduating senior students when they include diversity as stated above.

To nominate a student, the Department Chair or the Chair of the Department Awards Committee (or similar), should complete the appropriate online form (see below).

Past Undergraduate Awardees

The award criteria were changed in 2021 to give institutions that graduated 100 or more chemistry and biochemistry majors a second nomination. In addition, reflecting the commitment of the American Chemical Society to the core value of diversity, equity, inclusion and respect, any institution is now allowed to make a second nomination of a student deemed extraordinary in consideration of diversity (see criteria above). Each awardee has been sent a certificate and a letter detailing how they can obtain free membership in the division (provided the institution submitted the application on time). These items were sent to the nominator for distribution to the student.

Testimonials on Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships

2022 SURF Awardee-Nathan Tang

The ACS DOC SURF program was an incredible privilege to participate in. It had a little of everything: resources to support summer research, opportunities to meet leading chemists in the industry, insightful talks to increase chemical horizons, and multiple presentations to develop communication skills. I was so glad I decided to apply to this prestigious program since I came away from the dinner and poster session with new connections, friendships, and knowledge.
Due to the fellowship’s selective nature, everyone we engaged with during the dinner and poster session was able to dedicate their attention to meeting us as people and offering advice and wisdom from their accomplished careers. It was inspiring to be around so many people who spoke the language of chemistry and cared about aiding the development of the next generation of organic chemists. From the mentor I received through my industry sponsor to the tours of industrial technology, the only wish I had is that we could have stayed together longer!

2022 SURF Awardee-Daniel Hubin

The SURF program is so much more than just funding for summer research. Although it is nice to receive financial compensation for all those hours spent in lab doing what I love to do, being a part of this fellowship is so much more rewarding.
Throughout the summer, the opportunities to meet with likeminded peers and professional chemists alike are numerous. Getting to take part in conversations with these people throughout the summer makes the research so much more fun and fulfilling. Presenting my research at the end of the summer was by far my favorite part of the fellowship. Everyone who is a part of SURF truly cares about the research we did over the summer and their interest is obvious through their insightful questions and insight. The presentation and poster session were opportunities to actually engage in discussion with very smart and inquisitive chemists, and I learned so much through those presentations alone.
It is humbling to be a part of such a group of talented and smart people and I appreciate the SURF committee for giving me the opportunity to do so.

History of the Graduate Research Fellowship Program

Graduate Research Fellowships Program Terminated in 2016

The Division of Organic Chemistry has given out 398 Graduate Research Fellowships (See below) since the program started in 1981 with generous support from Organic Syntheses, Organic Reactions, and numerous companies.  Unfortunately, industrial support has declined markedly in recent years from 11 fellowships in 2006-2007, to 7 in 2010-2011, to 2 in 2013-2014, to 1 in 2015-2016, and to 0 for 2016-2017. Thus, we were forced to terminate the program.
