The University of Kentucky offers a rich graduate program in chemical engineering that allows students to immerse themselves in novel research projects across many fields. Reasons you should consider UK include:
Academia and National LabsAlumni have went on to have independent careers at University of Alabama, Vanderbilt University, University of Rhode Island, University of Michigan-Dearborn and Batelle and Oak Ridge National Lab to name a few.
IndustryAlumni have joined numerous fields and industries. A few examples include stating their own companies, joining the pharmaceutical industry at Moderna, GSK and Abbvie, joining the chemical industry at Johnson and Johnson, Ashland Chemical, and Thermo Fisher or even joining the bourbon industry at Buffalo Trace.
In addition to all of the options, chemical engineers have traditionally ranked at or near the top of starting salaries among all of the engineering professions!
Most students take 12 courses in our PhD curriculum. To build and improve our student’s communication skills, all students serve as teaching assistants for one semester. Students also take a preliminary exam in the first year. The exam is meant to assess student progress and provide guidance for the development of their proposal. The students present their proposal to a committee of four to five faculty members in year two. To complete the program, students submit dissertations and take final oral examinations. For more details, please see the current chemical engineering graduate student handbook.
