About Master’s Program,
OSU’s Master of Science in Chemical engineering is a discipline focused on conceiving and designing processes to produce, transform and transport materials-beginning with experimentation in the laboratory followed by implementation of the technology. Our mission is to develop human resources, professional knowledge, and the infrastructure through which chemical engineering can contribute to human welfare. Traditional careers are in the chemical, energy and oil industries, with increasing opportunities in biotechnology pharmaceuticals.
Master’s Program Degree Eligibility with GPA,
A minimum of thirty (30) semester credit hours is required by the university for graduation; this requirement is met by the Chemical Engineering MS curriculum.
Specific educational objectives have been established and can be met through a combination of course work, independent study, and other mechanisms (e.g., seminar).
- An undergraduate degree in chemical engineering from anABET accredited program. Students with undergraduate degrees in other engineering disciplines or closely-related fields (chemistry, physics, mathematics, biological sciences, etc.) are also invited to apply and will be evaluated on an individual basis and extra course work may be required.
- GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) is preferred. Equivalent credentials are required from an international university.
- GRE scores are not required for students with an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering from an ABET accredited, domestic program. Otherwise, a minimum of 160 Quantitative score is preferred.
