Lin Zhu, Ph.D.

Lecturer

Lin Zhu received a Ph.D. from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 2000. His primary area of research includes chemistry education.

Zhu is developing new general chemistry curricula that utilizes the latest data collection and management systems that allow instructors to monitor better the progress of individual students or groups. Introductory level chemistry students will have more access to modern instrumentation in chemistry, which better prepares them for future careers in chemistry-related fields.
