MSc in Chemical Engineering in Indianapolis United States | Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

The chemical engineering master's programs provide an exceptional chance for students to expand and strengthen their undergraduate education through focused study in specific chemical engineering disciplines. This program combines conventional full-time, on-campus graduate studies with industry-focused options that cater to working professionals or those seeking to alternate between academic and industrial work.
The department provides two distinct graduate tracks. The Master of Science (MS) program follows a thesis-oriented model, where students engage in both laboratory research and coursework, culminating in a written thesis and oral defense. The Master of Chemical Engineering (MChE) is a coursework-focused program that substitutes additional classes or project work for the traditional thesis requirement.

Specialization areas in our department encompass energy and sustainability, separations, biochemical engineering and biosystems, process and transport modeling, process control and optimization, petroleum engineering, thermodynamics and molecular simulations, polymers, interfacial phenomena and nanotechnology, and particulate materials.

Undergraduate students with advanced standing can also begin working toward a master's degree while finishing their bachelor's program. Interested students should consult their academic advisors about this accelerated pathway.

Both the Master of Chemical Engineering and Master of Science in Chemical Engineering programs aim to equip graduates for rapid career progression by enhancing their undergraduate foundation with advanced studies and specialized exploration of key chemical engineering challenges and subjects.
