The Interdisciplinary Program in Polymer Engineering

The Graduate School requires candidates for an MSc/ME degree in Polymer Engineering to have achieved a high grade point average in their undergraduate studies. The acceptance decision of the Interdepartmental Committee will be based on the candidate’s academic background, curriculum vitae, professional achievements, and letters of recommendation.

The MSc program requirements are at least 16 credit points of course work and a research thesis. Before submitting an application, the candidate must find an academic staff member who agrees to be the research supervisor.

The ME program is a study program specifically designed for practicing engineers and does not have a research component. It requires at least 34 credit points of course work and a 6 credit point seminar project.
