Mission Statement:

Our Mission is to "advance and disseminate knowledge and information concerning the art and science of spectroscopy and other allied sciences." Our local section recognizes professional researchers, graduate students, and undergraduate students through our awards programs. Since 1952 the New York/ New Jersey Local section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy has sponsored the Gold Medal Award program, currently part of the Eastern Analytical Symposium and Exposition (EAS).
