The widely respected Master of Science degree program in
Chemistry at St. John’s University prepares students for careers in
industry or education, government laboratories or private research.
Offered through the Graduate Division of St. John’s College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences, the M.S. in Chemistry also will prepare
students to pursue a doctoral degree in the field.
The Program
The M.S. degree program in Chemistry comprises a broad range of
specialized and cross-disciplinary courses in such areas as
- Organic and Inorganic chemistry
- Computer applications in chemistry
- Electronic Spectra and Group Theory
- Methods of Analysis
- Reaction Kinetics
- and Quantum Chemistry
The Department fosters a supportive scholarly community in which
students work closely with
distinguished faculty. In addition, a limited number of
graduate assistantships are available for qualified students.
Graduate assistants receive a stipend and tuition remission for
supervising undergraduate laboratory activities. Students applying
for assistantships must submit Graduate Record Examination (GRE)
scores (general and subject-specific) with their applications.
