The graduate program in Chemistry offers exciting opportunities to pursue cuttingedge scientific research in physical, inorganic, organic, biological and nano chemistry. The department hosts numerous wellfunded research projects that form the basis of graduate student dissertations. During the first semester, students enroll in four graduate level courses, including CHEM 2870, and choose a research advisor among the faculty in the department. Additionally, first year students receive fellowship support and are not required to teach. A significant feature of Brown's doctoral program in chemistry is that almost all students start their research during the second semester of the first year. During later semesters, the research project becomes the student's primary responsibility, and leads to a Ph.D. dissertation usually within four or five years.
