Master of Science - Chemistry

Scientists who hold an advanced degree in chemistry are on the front lines of chemical research and development, making significant contributions to the knowledge of the physical world.

In this program, students will focus on a branch of chemistry that interests them, including analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry. Using sophisticated instrumentation, students may work to develop new materials for medicine, agriculture, food production, or industry. Students could also explore environmental monitoring, pollution abatement, or the building of sensors for use in explosives detection.

Additionally, students in this program have unique opportunities to actively research across disciplines in such areas as bio-organic chemistry, biophysical chemistry, environmental chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and nanomaterials.
