Master of Science in Chemistry - Biochemistry

The Master of Science degree in Chemistry and the Master of Science degree in Chemistry with a concentration in Biochemistry are programs of study with research at the core. As the student focuses in depth on an independent scientific investigation, solid research and communication skills are developed. The goal of both M.S. degree programs is to provide students with a thorough grounding in laboratory and research skills, and in-depth training in their areas of specialization. Our M.S. program provides excellent training for careers in all aspects of the chemical industry (biotechnology, environment, process and analytical, basic research), science educators seeking to increase their skill and knowledge base, and students whose goal is advanced study at the Ph.D. level.

Have completed a BS or BA in chemistry, biochemistry, or a related field such as molecular biology, chemical engineering, materials science, or physics. Please note that some graduate courses assume the enrolled students have completed a year of physical chemistry and/or a semester of biochemistry. Additional coursework may be required for non-chemistry or biochemistry applicants.Have a GPA of at least 3.0 in chemistry and related courses.1.Hold a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution, or shall have completed equivalent academic preparation as determined by the appropriate campus authority,
