About the course
The Department of Chemistry offers graduate programs leading to the degrees of master of arts, master of science, non-thesis, and doctor of philosophy in the research areas of analytical, biological, inorganic, organic, physical, and polymer and materials chemistry. Reinforcing the broad nature of our graduate program, we have interactions with various departments, including the Departments of Physics and Astronomy, Biochemistry and Biophysics, Environmental Science and Engineering, and the Biological and Biomedical Sciences Program. The goals of the program are to provide students with a broad base in advanced topics in chemistry and substantial depth in one or more areas of expertise through an indepth research experience. Students earning a Ph.D. in chemistry are intellectually functional as independent scientists and sufficiently technically skilled to perform advanced scientific research. They are able to instruct others in their discipline. They have highly developed communications skills to allow the efficient dissemination of scientific information in both a written and verbal
format. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
