M.S. DEGREE REQUIREMENT (2004-2005):

New students must complete the requirements for graduation as stated in the 2004-2006 graduate catalogue. Returning students who completed their first graduate course prior to August 2004 have the choice of following the catalogue in effect at the time of their matriculation or any catalogue published thereafter.  Required courses for the degree Masters of Science in Chemical Engineering are shown in CAPS.  Note that courses are listed as CHMG (Chemical Engineering courses) or ENGG (Engineering core courses). The ENGG core courses include courses in engineering, economics, management , law, mathematics and computer applications.  Some of the core courses will be via distance learning over the internet with a limited number of class meetings at the College (usually on Friday evening or Saturday).

All students must complete thirty credits of graduate course work including: (a) three required courses from CHMG-511, 707, 713, 714,  ENGG-682; (b) two  courses from CHMG-525, 527, 529, 539, 709, 717, 727, 729, ENGG-632, 670, 672 ; (c) five electives from ENGG-650, ENGG-652, CHMG-735, CHMG-736 or other approved graduate courses offered by any department in the engineering school.  Graduate courses taken in engineering programs other than Chemical Engineering require the approval of the Department Chairperson and/or Graduate Program Director. All students must present a minimum grade point average of 3.0 in order to graduate.

FINANCIAL AID:

Financial aid is available through the Chemical Engineering Department for US citizens and permanent residents.  Full-time students are eligible for industrial fellowships, tuition scholarships and teaching assistantships. Partial tuition scholarships are available for part-time students whose employers do not offer tuition reimbursement benefits.  International students may apply for tuition scholarships after successful completion of their first semester at the College (minimum grade point average of B).  Financial aid decisions are made by  the Graduate Chemical Engineering Faculty Committee.

RESEARCH CREDITS:

Full-time and Seamless Masters students who are granted industrial fellowships are required to complete a three to six credit Independent Project (CHMG-735/736, OR CHMG-739/740) as part of the total thirty credits leading to a publication in a peer reviewed journal.  Exceptions to this rule require the approval of the Department Chairperson and/or Graduate Program Director.  Note that projects require a greater time commitment than regular courses.

CROSS-LISTED COURSES:

CHML-511/CHMG-511; CHML-550/ENGG-650; CHML-525/CHMG-525; CHML-539/CHMG-539; ENVL-435/CHMG-727; CHML-572/ENGG-672
