Program Overview

Polymer science and engineering is a multidisciplinary applied science field. The graduate programs focus on providing a foundation in three primary areas of polymer synthetic chemistry, polymer physical chemistry, and polymer engineering through core coursework. Beyond the coursework, students work closely with faculty mentors on sponsored research projects to prepare them for exceptional careers in industrial, government, or academic positions.

What Will I Learn?

You will acquire knowledge through coursework, seminars, close interactions with faculty members, and primarily through conducting world-class polymer research. With a diverse faculty and research emphases, students have several fields of study from which to choose. In all cases, you will learn to approach and execute a research program in order to advance current understanding and future technology.

Many students participate in internships while pursuing their graduate degree. Typically these internships are a result of collaborative projects between the internship sponsor and advisor, so they are closely (if not directly) related to the student's research.  Other internships are the result of specific fellowship awards available to students.
