Gifted Program in Chemistry

University of Pittsburgh at Titusville

The Chemistry Challenge Program at the University of Pittsburgh, Titusville Campus (UPT), is under the auspices of the Titusville Area School District and UPT. The program is designed to provide gifted high school students, grades 9-12, with hands-on experience in chemistry, to introduce them to modern technology, and to illustrate the relevance of chemistry in our every day lives. The seminars consist of fun activities and demonstrations that challenge the students intellectually, stimulate their interest in science, and cover a wide range of topics.
