Master of Science in Chemical Sciences
Are you interested in graduate-level studies in chemistry or biochemistry? The Master of Science in Chemical Sciences (MSCB) is a thesis-based program with tracks in chemistry and biochemistry, designed for you to complete your coursework and thesis research within two academic years.
The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, part of KSU’s College of Science and Mathematics (CSM), offers this broad-based, interdisciplinary program. The curriculum is flexible and can be customized to fit your particular background and research interests. You will begin work with potential research mentors on projects that demonstrate the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary nature of inquiry in the chemical sciences. In your second year, you'll work closely with your mentor on your thesis project.
Research opportunities are available in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry, from synthetic organic chemistry to enzymology. MSCB will prepare you to think in an interdisciplinary fashion about problems in chemistry, biochemistry and many other related areas of study.
