Environmental chemistry studies examine chemical interactions that influence the origins, makeup, reactions, movement, and destinations of chemical compounds in natural systems (including air, water, and soil), how human actions impact these systems, and chemical approaches to preventing pollution and cleaning up contaminants. The shared goal of UCR's environmental chemistry studies is to establish a foundational, molecular-scale comprehension of environmental chemical processes and remediation techniques. Research initiatives encompass atmospheric monitoring, atmospheric reaction dynamics, aerosol chemistry studies, environmental water sensing technologies, pollutant detection using fiber optics, nano-engineered materials for wastewater purification, porous substances for CO2 capture and transformation, among others.
As a vast, multidisciplinary domain, environmental chemistry at UCR delivers comprehensive education in atmospheric science, physical chemistry, analytical methods, and materials science. Students gain chances to cultivate cross-disciplinary research skills through partnerships with the Air Pollution Research Center, Environmental Sciences Department, and CE-CERT (Center for Environmental Research & Technology).

Qualification Requirements
A bachelor's degree, or its equivalent, from an accredited institution. The degree must represent the completion of a program equivalent in subject matter and scholarship to that offered by the University of California.
A minimum of a 3.0 undergraduate GPA or B-equivalent (if GPA is not on a 4.0 scale). We recommend that you check with the graduate program as they may have a higher standard for their GPA requirements. If your GPA is below this, follow up with the graduate program you are interested. Applications are reviewed in their entirety and the program can look at your other components and advise you on potential admission.
All applications are initially reviewed by the graduate program before a recommendation is submitted to the Graduate Division for final approval.
We require transcripts with final grades or most recent grades (if degree is in progress) from all college-level institutions you have attended. We also require proof of any degree awarded to you. Confirmation of your degree can be a degree posting on a transcript or a copy of your degree certificate. If you have attended an institution located outside of the US.
IELTS - minimum acceptable overall score is 7 with no score less than 6 on any individual component. TOEFL - minimum acceptable scores are: 550 for the revised TOEFL paper-delivered test and 80 for the TOEFL iBT.
