化学理学硕士

化学MS学位提供高级专业研究和研究。它包括超出学士学位的大约一年的课程工作，以及论文中提出的重要研究项目的开发。硕士学生将选择四个重点化学领域之一，但是课程和委员会选择具有足够的灵活性，以使学习计划能够获得重要的跨学科特色。理论和实践方面的额外准备使化学科学家可以承担超出学士水平研究通常所赋予的责任和监督。MS学位已为某些工业和大专教学职位做好充分的准备。通常不需要硕士学位作为博士学位的预备步骤。
Students will:<br><br>independently learn new chemical principles and techniques beyond those typical of undergraduate academic training,<br>identify original and worthwhile chemical problems stated as research questions and hypotheses,<br>design and execute experiments as part of independent chemistry research investigations,<br>critically evaluate their data, results, and conclusions and those of others in the chemistry community,<br>identify potential problems in the responsible conduct of research and identify strategies for managing those problems,<br>articulate standards for laboratory safety in chemical research, assess potential hazards they may encounter in novel chemistry research, and develop effective strategies to mitigate those risks, and<br>communicate chemical knowledge, new models, and research results both orally and in writing for both technical and nontechnical audiences.
