Overview

Features

Graduate Chemistry students at University of Georgia pursue research-oriented programs of study leading to the Ph.D. or M.S. degrees.

Most graduate students directly pursue a Ph.D. without getting the M.S. degree, and they can specialize in analytical, inorganic (or bioinorganic), organic, or physical chemistry.

Additionally, numerous areas of interdisciplinary research may be pursued by students, regardless of their major area in courses.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Students become candidates for the PhD degree after passing preliminary examinations, which are normally taken at the end of the second year in residence.

There are two parts to these examinations: a report on the student’s research progress to date and an original research proposal on a topic outside the student’s research area.

The research proposal is reviewed during an oral examination of the student before the advisory committee.

PhD candidates are also required to give two graded departmental seminars: one about their research project, and another on a selected literature topic.
