Degree Pathway for Master of Science in Chemistry, Applied Chemistry Specialization
A minimum of 30 credits is required for the Master of Science degree in Chemistry.
There is no thesis option for the MS in Chemistry Applied Chemistry option. Beyond the 18 required credit hours, choose any 4 graduate (5000 level or higher) chemistry courses (worth the final 12 credits to complete 30 credits).
The Non-thesis Master of Science degree requires 30 credits of course work earned in 3-credit graduate courses exclusive of seminar and colloquium (CHEM.6010, CHEM.6020, CHEM.6030, CHEM.6040).
