About the course
The graduate program is divided into six areas, Analytical, Biochemistry, Inorganic, Materials, Organic, and Physical. Before applying, students should examine the research specializations of the faculty in their area of interest to identify labs in which they would like to study. Students are selected from a competitive applicant pool and supported for the duration of their studies with stipends and tuition waivers. During their training, students have access to state-of-the-art laboratory research facilities. Recent graduates of the program have been very successful in obtaining academic, research, industrial, and professional positions nationally and internationally. We encourage direct contact between potential applicants and individual faculty to explore mutual interests in research training opportunities.
The thesis-type program is designed to provide the student with advanced work in chemistry and experience in chemical research. Once students have selected a major professor to direct their research, a supervisory committee chaired by the major professor is formed. A course of study, consistent with University- and college-wide requirements, is formulated for each student by the supervisory committee and consists of a minimum of eighteen hours of graded classroom work and three hours of graded directed individual study (DIS). The course-type program is designed to provide the student with a strong technical education, but with less emphasis on research. In this program, at least twenty-one of the University-required thirty-two semester hours of credit must be taken on a letter-grade basis at the 4000 level or above.
