• The thesis research project represents an opportunity for graduate students to make a mark on the world. Working in conjunction with a faculty member or team, individually tailored thesis projects enable students to think independently about cutting-edge research areas that are of critical importance. 
  • Thesis research is the most important step toward becoming a Ph.D. scientist, and our program provides an outstanding base with a proven track record of success.
  • Graduate students make up the heart of the Chemistry Department, and the department strives to support students’ individual needs. Each student is carefully advised and classes are traditionally quite small. Multidisciplinary research and course offerings that increase scientific breadth and innovation are hallmarks of the program.
  • The normal program leads to a Ph.D. degree. A student is not usually accepted for a terminal M.A. degree.
  • The graduate program provides students with the background and technical expertise required to be leaders in their field and to pursue independent research.
  • Students will be studying subjects like Organometallic Chemistry, Chemistry of Inorganic Compounds, Spectroscopy, Materials, and Surface, etc.
