Northwestern’s chemistry is ranked #9. I can’t say if they got strong mentorship but quite a few chemistry majors have won prestigious awards like Fulbright and Cambridge Gates. There seems to be a lot of projects available for undergrad research. There’s a very strong collaboration between the department and other science/engineering/biomed departments. The school is home to one of the national research centers for nanotech.
