Welcome to the Gamma Iota Chapter of Alpha Chi Sigma at Virginia Tech!

Welcome to the Gamma Iota Chapter of the Alpha Chi Sigma Fraternity!

General Information

We are a professional and social fraternity for men and women in the chemical sciences. All members are bound by three fraternal objects:

  1. To bind its members with a tie of true and lasting friendship.
  2. To strive for the advancement of chemistry both as a science and as a profession.
  3. To aid its members by every honorable means in the attainment of their ambitions as chemists throughout their mortal lives.

We are a very active chapter at Virginia Tech partaking in various academic, philanthropic, and social events. We encourage all students interested in science to explore what our fraternity has to offer and consider pledging Alpha Chi Sigma.
