The records of the North Carolina State University Department of Chemistry include memoranda on the role of the department, a long-range proposal, notes for advisors and lab assistants, workstation operations guide, essays, lecture outlines, newsletters, a book of exercises, and promational materials advertising the department. Materials range in date from 1931 to 2004. The North Carolina State University Department of Chemistry charts its history back to the founding of North Carolina College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts in 1889. Its initial focus was on applied chemistry in the the field of agriculture, and later in biology. After several reorganizations over nearly 75 years, in 1959, the department took up residence in the School of Physical Science and Applied Mathematics (now the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences).
