Graduation & Degree Requirements
Master’s candidates are expected to complete 36 credits of approved graduate-level course work, including required 23 compulsory credits and an acceptable dissertation. In consultation with a faculty adviser, M.S. students select a program of at least 36 points of credits of graduate courses appropriate to their career goals and incorporating core requirements and complete at least 6 months company intern.
The core program includes at least 3 compulsory courses, 3 public elementary courses, at least one graduate-level mathematic course, selective courses, company internship report and 2 experimental courses. 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:
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.
