About the course

The UAH Department of Chemistry provides quality undergraduate and graduate education in chemistry, with a special emphasis in biotechnology and materials science. Our goal is to provide our students with life-long learning skills allowing them to adapt to an ever-changing environment that requires an understanding and appreciation of chemistry. To accomplish this we offer American Chemical Society accredited degree programs at the undergraduate and graduate level. General requirements of Graduate School under Plan I or Plan II must be satisfied. Plan I ? Master of Science with Thesis- A minimum of 24 hours of graduate course work is required to complete the degree. Up to 12 hours of the course requirements may be accepted as transfer credits from graduate work done in other chemistry programs. All incoming students must take ACS placement exams in analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships

How to apply

Entry requirements for University of Alabama in Huntsville

To be admitted unconditionally, applicants must satisfy the following criteria:

　　1. Have a minimum grade-point average of B (3.0) on the undergraduate record, and

　　2.Have a minimum total score of 300 on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and a minimum score of 3.0 on the analytical writing portion. For the English, Nursing, and Public Affairs programs, applicants must have a minimum total score of 410 on the MAT.

　　the applicant must request that the following items be sent to the Office of Graduate Admissions:

　　1. Two official copies of the academic record from each collegiate institution attended,

　　2. For most programs, applicants should submit scores of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) from Educational Testing Service (ETS). The institutional code for UAH is 1854.

　　3. The GRE/MAT requirement may be waived by the Graduate Dean upon recommendation of the department or program chair if at least one of the following conditions holds:

　　a) the applicant is the holder of a post-baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution,

　　(b) the applicant presents evidence of having taken the GRE/MAT over 5 years ago and hence cannot obtain official scores,

　　(c) the applicant graduated from an accredited college or university five or more years ago and has not subsequently been enrolled since that time, and has a record of consistent professional and/or academic achievement as documented on a submitted resume, and other departmental requirements are met.

　　General requirements of Graduate School must be satisfied. In addition, students admitted to the graduate chemistry program are assumed to have training equivalent to the chemistry B.S. degree recommended by the American Chemical Society. The ACS-approved degree includes lecture and laboratory work in elementary chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry (including instrumental analysis), biochemistry, elementary physics, and calculus. Graduation from an undergraduate program not adhering to ACS standards does not preclude entrance into the UAH program. Students should realize, however, that if deficiencies exist, some additional undergraduate courses might be required. The time required to complete the M.S. degree may then be proportionately increased.

　　TOEFL or IELTS (Non-Native English Speakers) - TOEFL (iBT): all sub-scores ? 18 OR IELTS: all sub-scores ? 6.0, for international students.
