- The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering offers graduate courses leading to the PhD, MS and ME degrees.
- PhD students spend the majority of their time carrying out dissertation research.
- Coursework requirements beyond the first semester are minimal and students typically become deeply engaged in research in their second semester.
- The master's degree reflects mastery of core and specialized areas of chemical/biological engineering, as well as the ability to conduct research on a well-defined problem formulated by the student's faculty advisor.
