Welcome to the Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh web page. The Society, along with our sister society, the Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh, is a non-profit organization dedicated to furthering science education in the Western Pennsylvania region. To that end, with support from the Pittsburgh Conference, we support member education programs, teacher and student awards, a wide variety of educational programs, and grant programs for high schools, colleges, and beginning university professors. The links to your left will lead you to information on those programs.

If you're interested in the Society, please note that our monthly meetings, the third Wednesday of the month, are open to the public. The Technology Forum at 5:30 usually hosts a speaker and topic of general science interest. Dinner, following the Technology Forum, is a mere $8, and that includes free parking at our host institution, Duquesne University, centrally located in the heart of Pittsburgh. The Technical Program, after dinner, hosts only the best spectroscopists. Take a look! Anybody interested in spectroscopy is welcome at the meetings.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the SSP or volunteering to help promote science education through our various programs, please visit the membership information page.
