How does YSU’s Graduate Chemistry Program prepare students to enter further advanced graduate studies, professional programs, or the workforce?
Our program is very appropriate for preparation for advanced graduate study in chemistry, for professional school, and for the workplace. One of the missions of our program is to take students who might be “late-bloomers” and make them marketable to professional and graduate schools. Our philosophy is that students who perform poorly or are deemed unsuccessful as undergraduate students for whatever reasons occasionally wake-up after receiving their bachelors degrees and perform quite well in graduate school. Our track record in this regard is excellent. We have also had excellent success in our graduate program in taking B.S. students who have majored in disciplines other than chemistry (e.g., medical technology, biology, combined science, etc.) and after successfully completing the M.S. degree in chemistry, go on to excellence in professional schools and graduate schools, and as practicing M.S. chemists in the workplace.
