Overview

The thesis M.S. in chemistry prepares students for basic or applied research through a combination of coursework and research, and culminates in a published thesis. The advanced knowledge and skills gained through this programme can enhance career prospects, open doors to new opportunities, and provide a competitive edge in the job market.

The non-thesis M.S. in chemistry is a course-intensive degree and a fantastic opportunity for professional advancement, particularly for individuals already established in their careers in industry, education, government or the military.
