The requirements for admission to the M.S. and Ph.D. programs are identical. The department examines a broad range of criteria that normally includes the content of undergraduate and graduate programs and grades earned, particularly in the areas of chemistry, physics, biology, and mathematics; scores earned on the GRE (the department highly recommends that candidates take the GRE advanced chemistry examination); scores on the TSE and TOEFL exams; three letters of recommendation from individuals who are able to judge the candidate's likelihood for success in graduate school and his or her potential for scholarly scientific research; and any previous scientific and technical publications, presentations, and experience.
