Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, PhD

Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering 30 courses

About This Program

The Ph.D. is awarded for original research performed, publicly defended, and published under the guidance of a thesis advisor. The formal requirements for this degree are: Students must successfully complete six graduate-level courses including the two required core courses and four elective courses (at least two of which MUST be ChemBE elective courses) listed below: Ph.D. Students are strongly encouraged to take the two required courses and one elective course in the first fall semester. However, students who do not have an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering or a closely related field may need to first enroll in the undergraduate versions of the same courses and should discuss an appropriate course plan with the Director of the Graduate Program at the start of their first semester.
