In collaboration with a program advisor, you will select courses from Chemistry and additional disciplines that give you what you need to succeed—from organic chemistry, to the life sciences, to materials research. Advanced chemistry topics to explore include medicinal chemistry, theory, and applications of NMR spectroscopy, molecular modeling, and chemical spectroscopy. You can also supplement your master’s in chemistry studies with high-level undergraduate courses.

You can choose a thesis option, consisting of high-level original research, or a non-thesis option with additional coursework. Hands-on research and lab work will also be an integral component of many of your courses.
