Overview
The Center for Photochemical Sciences,
established in 1985, evolved from research activities of faculty in the Department
of Chemistry at Bowling Green State University to make more effective use
of focused resources in the photochemical sciences by assembling a team of
scientists collaborating in an interactive, interdisciplinary research setting.
Center members include BGSU faculty from the Departments of Chemistry,
Physics and Astronomy, and Biological Sciences. Its unifying intellectual
theme focuses on the study of the interaction of light with physical, chemical,
and biological systems, and on the quest for practical applications of that
basic knowledge, which stimulate new technology. The Center serves
to expand the synergy of research, teaching, and applications in the photochemical
sciences.

Goals and Objectives
- To conduct research across disciplinary boundaries
- To prepare students and professionals for careers in industry and academia
- To
support established technological business through consultation and collaboration,
particularly in our immediate locale, and to support the development of new
business based on photoscience.
- To serve as a resource center and transfer knowledge to those outside the center.
Distinguishing Features
- Strong
interaction on regional, state, and national levels with industries whose
research, development, and product initiatives involve the photochemical
sciences.
- A distinguished scientific advisory board composing
of leaders in the photochemical sciences from industry and academia who participate
in policy, planning, and establishing of long-range goals for the Center.
- Research collaborations at the local, regional, national, and international levels.
