Program in Chemical Engineering and Materials Science

Students who have completed a BS degree in chemistry, biochemistry, mathematics, physics, other biological or physical science, or another engineering discipline are eligible for admission into the graduate program in chemical engineering at Michigan State University. Students who are notified, upon review of their application by the Graduate Committee, that their academic record warrants admission will be expected to complete CHE 804 and CHE 805, with a minimum grade of 3.5 in each course, prior to the fall semester for which they have been admitted. These two classes are accelerated courses specifically designed to prepare non-chemical engineering students for graduate study in Chemical Engineering. The courses provide an intensive overview of chemical engineering principles and are a time-saving alternative to taking undergraduate courses to fulfill collateral requirements. CHE 804 is taught in the spring semester and CHE 805 is taught in the summer semester on the internet. Since the courses fulfill a collateral as well as a pre-enrollment requirement, no departmental funding is available, and students must pay their own tuition. Please note that, in general, students who do not have BS degrees in chemical engineering must have a minimum GPA of 3.5 in their current major to be considered for admission into the MS program.
