培养进行专门的实验室研究所需的技能，为在竞争激烈的化学和生物工业中的职业做准备。化学是从基础到应用的现代研究领域的不同领域中的促成科学，包括催化，纳米技术，可再生能源，材料和法医学。URI的化学系在本科和研究生级别提供经典的化学文科教育课程，重点放在该领域最现代领域的研究人员所需的工具上。化学研究生学位的关键组成部分是研究。这就是URI计划旨在使即将毕业的研究生能够在其研究生职业生涯的早期就在研究实验室中脱颖而出的原因。尽量减少课程工作，以便有时间进行指导和独立研究。对于攻读博士学位或硕士（论文或非论文）
Develop the skills needed to conduct specialized laboratory research in preparation for careers in highly competitive chemical and biological industries. Chemistry is the enabling science in a diverse cross-section of modern fields of research that range from fundamental to applied and includes catalysis, nanotechnology, renewable energy, materials and forensic chemistry. The Department of Chemistry at URI delivers the classic curriculum of a liberal arts education in chemistry at the undergraduate and graduate levels with an emphasis on the tools required of researchers in the most modern sectors of the field.<br>Research is the heart of graduate education in chemistry. In the first year of their PhD studies, students will join a research group and begin performing experimentation at the leading edge of their disciplines. The Department of Chemistry is home to faculty in the traditional chemistry disciplines: analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry. Most research programs at URI are interdisciplinary, allowing students to become well-versed in multiple fields of study as they work to become leaders in their fields. With research ranging from macromolecules to nanoscience and fundamental to applied, URI Chemistry has a home for graduate students in any discipline.<br><br>Time to Completion<br>Full-time: 5 years<br><br>Entry Term<br>Fall/Spring
