Applicants should have a Bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, environmental engineering, civil engineering, environmental science, chemistry, physics or other relevant degree, for admission into the program, with a minimum GPA of 3.0/4.0. Previous coursework should include math through differential equations, two semesters of chemistry (with labs), two semesters of physics (calculus based), and one semester of fluid mechanics. Applicants lacking in some area at the time of application may provide a plan to gain competence in these areas.
Resumepublications and time spent in a research lab make a much stronger application.
For international applicants, official scores from TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, CEFR or other accepted English Proficiency exam. See below for exemptions to this requirement.
