The University of Iowa Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering offers both thesis and non-thesis Masters of Science programs, a Doctor of Philosophy program, and a 5-year U2G program.
Graduate students in the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering gain an understanding of the principles of engineering science, with a focus on a chosen research area:
The department emphasizes research, personalized student-centered curricula and mentoring, and commits to full support for five years of all admitted Ph.D. students that meet basic program milestones. We utilize a research-based comprehensive exam to streamline our Ph.D. experience.
We help students build their mentoring network from day one! In addition to their research advisor, graduate students in the department receive peer and faculty mentors as well as the opportunity for alumni mentorship. Students are assigned a peer mentor and a faculty mentor (non-research advisor) during the summer before entering the program. The department also offers a voluntary alumni mentoring program in which students are paired up with an alumni mentor.
