Lakeland commits to providing low student-to-instructor ratios and the chemistry faculty are committed to providing individual attention for each student. The chemistry faculty are dedicated to upholding high academic standards and maintaining high quality, well-equipped labs where students receive individual instruction and carry out chemical experiments that involve "hands-on" use of current technology and instrumental analysis.
