These are some student organizations relating to both Chemical and Biomedical Engineering.
There are a selection of databases available online through FSU and FAMU, but there are many more databases for the wide variety of specializations in Engineering. Many of them are accessible through the general "@FSU-Engineering Databases" link. Please contact the engineering liaison if you have questions or would like assistance locating an item.
SciFinder-n (SFn) is the new version of SciFinder (sometimes called SciFinder-web). This new and improved search engine has a different interface and search algorithm but provides the same great access to data and research.
Note: First time users will need to create a SciFinder account.
