Chemistry Outreach
The Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP), and the Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh (SSP), are non-profit organizations dedicated to furthering science education, locally, nationally, and internationally.
To that end, with proceeds from Pittcon, we provide financial and administrative support for various science outreach activities including equipment grants , research grants, scholarships, internships and awards for teachers, professors and students.
We are always looking for new members who wish to promote science awareness and education.
