Materials Chemistry will be brought into introductory chemistry courses through the preparation of "A Materials Chemistry Companion to General Chemistry." Consisting of text, problem sets, model kits, software, and demonstration and laboratory experiments, the "Companion" will show how virtually every topic typically discussed in general chemistry courses can be illustrated with examples and concepts from materials chemistry. The introduction of materials chemistry promises to revitalize general chemistry. The new material will broaden and enhance the scientific and technological literacy of students as they learn the vital roles played by chemistry and chemists in our materials-intensive world. Inclusion of materials chemistry in introductory courses will increase the number and diversity of high-quality students who pursue careers in chemistry and in its many related scientific and engineering disciplines.

材料化学将通过编写《普通化学的材料化学伴侣》纳入化学导论课程。教材由课文、问题集、模型、软件、演示和实验室实验组成，将展示如何用材料化学中的例子和概念来说明普通化学课程中通常讨论的每个主题。材料化学的引入有望振兴普通化学。新教材将拓宽和提高学生的科技素养，让他们了解化学和化学家在我们这个材料密集的世界中所扮演的重要角色。在入门课程中加入材料化学将增加追求化学及其相关科学和工程学科职业的高素质学生的数量和多样性。
