<p>Edward W. Pitzer is an Assistant Professor of Chemistry and Mathematics at Marian University in Indianapolis, Indiana in the USA.</p>
<p>Professor Pitzer’s specialty is introductory courses in chemistry and mathematics for non-science and non-mathematics majors.</p>
<p>His present research interest is in the pedagogical construct of these non-major courses. He insists that making a non-science major excited about, or at least intrigued by, a science or mathematics course is a worthwhile effort.</p>
<p>Professor Pitzer has published works describing mathematical properties of organic molecules. Among these are his works describing topological constructs of organic molecules and a recent work on a general formulization of hydrocarbons. These types of works show both his predilection for chemistry and mathematics.</p>
