Mary K. Carroll earned a B.S. in chemistry from Union College (1986), and a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from Indiana University, Bloomington (1991). Following a postdoctoral stint at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Mary joined the faculty of Union College in 1992. She received the 1995 Stillman Prize for outstanding teaching, and was promoted to Associate Professor in 1998. Her research focuses on chemical sensors, development of spectroscopic instrumentation using diode lasers as light sources, and fundamental studies of dye/surfactant and dye/sol-gel interactions using molecular spectroscopic techniques. At Union, she has supervised 23 undergraduate research students, thirteen of whom have gone on to perform graduate work in chemistry-related fields.
