Dr. Matthew Bork earned his Ph.D. from Purdue University. He studied inorganic chemistry with a focus on photochemistry. A native of Winneconne, Wisconsin, he completed his undergraduate work just up I-39 at UW-Stevens Point with a major in chemistry and a minor in mathematics.

Dr. Bork teaches advanced inorganic chemistry and general chemistry and looks forward to teaching spectroscopy and perhaps introducing a new photochemistry course based on current applications. His research will focus on the photophysical properties of porphyrin-based metallic complexes.
