Program in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering

The graduate program in chemical engineering emphasizes thesis research balanced by advanced coursework toward earning M.S. degrees. Students in Chemical Engineering at the University of Connecticut will receive:Courses in other fields of interest coinciding with our research programs. The University of Connecticut stands among the top 20 public institutions in the nation. It is currently undergoing a state-funded $2.3 billion infrastructure improvement plan that includes a new state of the art engineering building. The new building will house laboratories for transformational research and education in strategic areas such as energy, informatics, nanotechnology, biotechnology, security and sustainable engineering. The student diversity continues to increase, as does the number of honors students, valedictorians and salutatorians who consistently make UConn their top choice. Located in idyllic Storrs, the campus maintains its New England charm while being only 20 minutes from Hartford, 75 minutes from Boston and 2 hours from New York. The Chemical Engineering Program at UConn provides students with a thorough grounding in fundamental chemical engineering principles while offering opportunities and resources to specialize in a wide variety of focus areas. Faculty are engaged in cutting-edge research, with expertise in fields including, but not limited to, nanotechnology, biomolecular engineering, green energy, water research, and polymer engineering. Several multidisciplinary centers leverage expertise from diverse departments, colleges, and the medical school, resulting in a unique set of resources and an extraordinary breadth of education.
