Graduate Degree Programs
Doctoral (Ph.D.) Degree: The Ph.D.-degree is a recognized terminal degree in the practical and creative areas in chemical engineering. The Ph.D. candidate is one who understands and demonstrates what it means to be a working researcher. It prepares students for independent research careers in industry or academia. Ph.D. students are fully funded.

Non-Thesis Master's Degree: A course-work based degree that provides students with added depth in the technical aspects of the field and breadth through technical electives. This program can be full time or part time. Full time students can complete the requirements in 3 semesters. Funding is not available for this degree program.

Thesis Master's Degree: A course and thesis based degree that prepares students for a variety of career paths. Students complete both coursework and a research project that provides specialization in a sub-field of chemical engineering. Funding is not available for this degree program.

BS/MS Program: Students can choose from the Non-Thesis MS Program or the Thesis MS Program. Please see this webpage for more information before you apply: Combined BS/MS Program in CBE.

Opportunities to visit Ohio State
There are a number of events throughout the year for students to visit Ohio State and the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering.  There is a University-wide Visitation Day Autumn quarter that is by invitation only. There is also a College of Engineering visitation day that is open to those students who register.  There will be an Open House in Winter for those students who have already been admitted for the following Autumn Semester.
