Harvard/MIT Chemistry Clubs

Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) are two of the world's leading academic institutions. Though separated geographically only by a few miles, participation between Harvard and MIT in academics and social events is often limited. For years, this has been the case with the respective universities' chemistry clubs. In 2004, the Harvard Chem Club announced a new initiative to get to know our neighbors down the street better. Through socials, faculty dinners, and talks by prominent figures in chemistry we hope to build a strong and healthy relationship with the MIT ClubChem.
