Wendy Schatzberg

Wendy Schatzberg serves as Associate Professor of Chemistry at Utah Tech University, leading research in nanomaterial synthesis and nanoscale characterization.

Her academic foundation includes:

• Ph.D. in Chemical Education from University of Northern Colorado
• Masters in Analytical/Physical Chemistry from Colorado State University
• B.S. in Chemistry from Western Washington University

Dr. Schatzberg specializes in structural analysis of nanomaterials using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), with research bridging fundamental nanoscience to applications in catalysis, biomedicine, and sustainable smart insulation. Her experimental approach emphasizes precise morphological characterization for functional material design.

Instructionally, she teaches Culinary Chemistry (CHEM 1020), Principles of Chemistry I/II (CHEM 1210/1220), Physical Chemistry sequence with labs (CHEM 3060/3065/3070/3075), and Independent Research (CHEM 4800).

Her laboratory operations focus on advanced microscopy techniques, supporting both educational demonstrations and applied nanomaterials development within Utah Tech's science infrastructure.
