Hello! I am a junior in a high school. Currently, I am exploring different different colleges and universities, only in the United States and America. Right now, materials science and polymer chemistry is really interests me and I want to know if anyone here can recommend a university (undergraduate) that specializes in such topic. I understand that a firm knowledge in chemistry has to be known, as well as physics. If I am wrong please feel free to correct me.
