化学哲学博士。

凯斯西储大学的化学系致力于提供世界一流的研究和课程计划，以追求化学研究生学位。博士学位课程旨在为学生奠定化学专业，化学相关领域和化学管理领域的坚实基础。为了完成这项任务，该系提供课程，学术讨论会，最重要的是，在有机，生物，分析，物理和无机化学领域，由教师指导下进行研究计划。博士生从学徒到独立研究员的指导是教师的主要责任。在培训过程中，学生将获得专业知识重点领域的技术熟练知识，以及解决问题的技能和跨学科科学知识的广泛基础。这使他们能够以行业和学术界所要求的灵活性进入劳动力市场。教师的另一个作用是向研究生传达
The Department of Chemistry at Case Western Reserve University strives to provide a world-class program of research and coursework for pursuit of graduate degrees in Chemistry. The PhD program is designed to equip students with a strong foundation for a career in chemistry, areas allied with chemistry, and chemical management. To accomplish this mission the Department offers courses, colloquia, and, most importantly, research programs guided by a faculty mentor in the fields of organic, biological, analytical, physical, and inorganic chemistry. Mentorship of PhD students during their maturation from apprentice to independent researcher is a major responsibility of faculty. During their training, students acquire technical proficiency in a focused area of expertise as well as a broad base of problem-solving skills and exposure to interdisciplinary science. This prepares them to enter the job market with the flexibility demanded by industry and academia. Another role of faculty is to convey to graduate students the proper ethics of scientific conduct. Furthermore, chemistry research is very equipment and instrument intensive, and often involves use of hazardous materials. Safety training thus receives careful attention and monitoring in our experimental programs.<br><br>PhD research at CWRU has two main foci: chemical biology and energy and materials. Chemical biology broadly defined includes programs in biochemistry, structural biology, biophysical chemistry, medicinal chemistry, the chemical basis of disease, and genetically-derived natural products. Energy and materials includes programs in photochemistry, ultrafast spectroscopy, theoretical and experimental electrochemistry, energy storage, solar energy, nanomaterials, and small molecule and polymer synthesis.
