POLYED Undergraduate Award for Achievement in Organic Chemistry

An award for outstanding performance by an undergraduate chemistry major in the two-semester organic sequence is offered by POLYED.  POLYED is a consortium of groups interested in science education in general and polymer education in particular.  Membership is derived from the American Chemical Society Divisions of Polymer Chemistry (POLY) and Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering (PMSE).  Major support is derived from these divisions and approximately fifty industrial sponsors. The major purpose of POLYED is the nurturing of education at all levels, from kindergarten through post-graduate.

**Note: POLYED has been disbanded and the award will not be issued in the future.
