Students are admitted into the PhD program for the Fall semester only, beginning in mid-August. Research projects in cross-disciplinary areas such as biophysical, bioinorganic, bioorganic, organometallic, and materials chemistry are also available. Ph.D. students take a balanced program of course work, seminars, and research. During their first year, students establish proficiency by exams and/or courses in 3 of the 5 major areas of chemistry (analytical, biological, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry).
