About Us...

Iota Sigma Pi is a National Honor Society for Women in Chemistry, with an active chapter in the Chicago area (Aurum Iodide Chapter).  We support the National Iota Sigma Pi goal of making awards to qualified women in chemistry and we have a variety of programs that include monthly professional talks by members and invited speakers, field trips, and a December joint meeting with the Chicago Section of ACS.  Monthly meetings are held from September to June each year. 

A benefit to membership in Iota Sigma Pi is the networking that occurs between the members.  Our chapter has a mixture of women with a variety of chemical interests: our members are from industry, government and academia and include both faculty and students.  The size of our group is small enough for everyone to get to know one another.
