Chemistry,
Computer and Physical Sciences 
CC&PS is housed on all three floors of the Science Building, the Computer Science and Engineering Building, and the Computer Science Annex.
The Science Building includes faculty offices, seven classrooms, a library, a classroom/computer laboratory with twenty-four workstations, two general chemistry laboratories, a biochemistry laboratory, an organic laboratory, an analytical chemistry laboratory, a core instrument laboratory, an inorganic/physical chemistry laboratory, a physics laboratory, an electronics laboratory, and a twelve station computer laboratory with Vernier LoggerPro interfaces for real-time data collection of student experimental data.
The Computer Science and Engineering Building includes faculty offices and two classrooms, while the Computer Science Annex includes two classroom/computer laboratories with thirty workstations each.

Research:
CC&PS has been very active
and successful in pursuing external funding, obtaining over two million dollars
over 7 years in funding through the National Institutes of Health, the National
Science Foundation, Oklahoma NIH-EPSCOR INBRE Program, the Air Force Office of
Scientific Research, the Zinpro Corporation, and other private research sponsors.
NIH funds an ongoing Minority Biomedical Research Support program (MBRS), currently
supporting a director and one investigators.
