The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology provides two graduate degree options: the Master of Science in Chemistry (MSCHEM), which involves completing a thesis and publication, and the Master of Chemistry (MCHEM), which substitutes thesis requirements with 12 additional credit hours of coursework.
Each MCHEM candidate develops a personalized study plan in collaboration with their academic advisor, who must be a faculty member within RHIT's Chemistry department.
MSCHEM students work with their advisory committee chair and members to design their academic path.
An MSCHEM advisory committee includes: (1) a primary CHEM faculty advisor for thesis guidance, (2) another CHEM faculty member, and (3) a faculty representative from outside the Chemistry department.
Both programs expand upon the fundamental knowledge gained during undergraduate studies.
These degrees - the Master of Chemistry and Master of Science in Chemistry - aim to accelerate professional growth in chemistry through advanced coursework and focused exploration of field-specific challenges and subjects.
Student Outcomes define the expected competencies graduates should possess.
Graduates will exhibit proficiency in conducting and presenting independent research or composing technical reviews on specialized topics.
Graduates will effectively communicate and analyze advanced subject matter for both expert and general audiences.

Qualification Requirements
Regular students are those pursuing an advanced degree in an approved program. Regular students generally must have a bachelor’s degree in an appropriate field from an accredited institution and not less than a B average. Exceptions are dependent on demonstrated ability. Only regular students are eligible for financial aid from Rose-Hulman. We don’t recommend changing your graduate program, as that requires reapplying to the new program and losing financial aid associated with your original program. Students admitted with an undergraduate GPA below 3.0/4.0 are automatically on probation for the first quarter of graduate work. Admission as a regular student on probation means the student must have at least a B average (GPA = 3.0/4.0) for the first 12 credit hours of graduate study in order to continue a program. Your program department—based on standards established by the Dean of Faculty—must approve your admittance if your academic records cannot be readily compared to our standards.
