Master of Science in Chemical Engineering

The Chemical Engineering Master of Science (MS) program is especially designed to provide excellent preparation for students who will be seeking employment in industry. This program offers the chance to study the newest and most important chemical engineering topics in depth. Students may also broaden out with classes outside of chemical engineering, creating a program that meets their needs. The Chemical Engineering Master of Science program is also excellent preparation for admission to a US chemical engineering doctoral program, especially for students who currently hold a BA or BS degree in chemistry, physics or mathematics.

To be admitted to our Master of Science program, students must demonstrate B-average or better performance in a science or engineering undergraduate curriculum. Besides undergraduate GPA, the MS admissions committee also considers GRE scores, letters of recommendation, and a personal statement. All MS applicants are expected to have completed General Chemistry I and II, Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III (multi-variable calculus), and an Ordinary Differential Equations Course. While most applicants for the Master of Science program have an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering, this is not necessarily a requirement. The field of chemical engineering is broad in scope, so we encourage applicants who hold undergraduate degrees in chemistry, polymer science, physics, materials science, or any engineering discipline to apply. While the exact program for each student is adapted to his or her previous training, students admitted without a chemical engineering undergraduate degree are normally required to participate in the Scientist to Engineer program. This special program saves the MS student both the time and expense of the undergraduate chemical engineering program.

The following materials must accompany the online application for on-campus graduate programs-
Transcripts from every post-secondary institution attended
Three recommendation letters
Official Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test Scores
Personal statement
Resum or Curriculum Vitae
Publications (optional)
An interview may be requested

There are no minimum test score requirements to apply for admission consideration. However, it may be necessary to improve your English proficiency if you score:

TOEFL internet-based test - 99 or lower.
IELTS - 6.5 or lower.
