The Degree of PhD (Chemical and Materials Engineering) [Graduate]

The Department offers PhD degrees in Chemical Engineering, Process Control, and Materials Engineering.

Program Requirements

For the PhD program, in addition to the requirements of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, the Department normally requires the candidate to complete satisfactorily at least ★18 in courses and ENGG 600 and attend specified seminars. Certain core course requirements apply. Details of all programs must be worked out in consultation with the Department.

There is no language requirement for the PhD degree.

The minimum period of residence is two academic years of full-time attendance at the University of Alberta.

Length of Program

The time required to complete the PhD program will vary according to the individual candidate and whether the PhD program follows the attainment of the BSc or the MSc degree. In the former case at least four years are usually required to complete the program. The maximum time permitted is six years.
