The materials chemistry program provides solid foundational knowledge of modern materials chemistry, sound technical training, creative research, and problem solving skills, offering a well-rounded graduate-level education in the theoretical, practical, and experimental aspects of the chemistry of materials. The goal of the materials chemistry graduate program is to impart hands-on know-how and train students deeply and broadly for rewarding careers in materials-related fields in academic, industrial, and/or government sectors. The program is devised to empower students to innovate new synthetic, fabrication, characterization, and theoretical methodologies and prepare them to be the future leaders in the field of materials chemistry.
