Students develop a rigorous fundamental science base coupled with insights into engineering applications. Graduates can become involved in the research, development, manufacture and use of chemicals, polymers, pharmaceuticals, electronic components, consumer products and petroleum products to name a few. The Department at Clemson has strong research programs in advanced materials, biotechnology, energy, and chemical and biochemical processing.
The MS degree program consists of 24 credit hours of graduate-level work and completion of 6 credit hours of graduate-level research and a research thesis. Coursework includes three required core courses (9 credit hours): Advanced Transport Phenomena, Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics and Chemical Engineering Kinetics. In addition, 15 credit hours of approved technical electives, and 6 credit hours of research are required. The normal time required to earn an MS degree in Chemical Engineering is four semesters and a summer.
