Chemistry M.S. - Analytical Environmental Chemistry
Master of Science - Chemistry; Analytical Environmental Chemistry Concentration
Degree Specific Credits: 36
Required Cumulative GPA: 3.0
Requirements
- 18 credits must be traditional letter-grade courses, which is usually 6 courses at the 500 level
- At least 9 of the 18 credits must be in 500-level letter-graded courses.
- Up to 9 of the 18 credits may be in letter-graded courses in a non-chemistry focus area such as education, journalism, or business. These 9 credits taken outside the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry must be approved by the advisory committee and the Graduate Education Committee.
- 20 of the 36 total credits must be in Chemistry (CHMY). Seminar, research, and professional paper credits at the 500- and 600-level and approved transfer credits can be included in this total. The Department and student’s advisory committee may require more than the minimum Graduate School requirements.
- All graduate students will register for CHMY 630 every semester. Attending departmental research seminars is integral to a student’s education and allows the student a chance to learn about areas of science outside of their research area. Attendance of these seminars is mandatory unless excused by the faculty member responsible for organizing the seminar. The method of grading this class is the choice of the faculty member organizing the seminar.
