Graduation & Degree Requirements
Master’s candidates are expected to complete 32 credits of approved graduate-level course work, including required 21 compulsory credits and an acceptable dissertation. In consultation with a faculty adviser, M.S. students select a program of 32 points of credits of graduate courses appropriate to their career goals and incorporating core requirements.
The core program includes compulsory courses, 3 public elementary courses, and at least one graduate-level mathematics course. Students whose backgrounds are not chemical engineering are required to take prerequisite chemical engineering courses including Chemical Reaction Engineering, Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics and Principles of Chemical Engineering.
Candidates must complete literature review and master-degree proposal before December in the third semester. The time between proposal and defense must be more than 12 months.
Career Prospect
Career Prospect
Most of graduates find jobs in oil and petrochemical companies such as CNPC, Sinopec, CNOOC and SINOCHEM or work as researchers, designers and managers in research institutions. And some graduates enroll in Doctor’s programs in Chemical Engineering.
