Non-Chemistry Major Applicants
Due to the interdisciplinary approach common in the department, we welcome students from academically diverse backgrounds. It is very helpful to have a strong background through coursework or research experience relevant to ongoing research in the department.
Non-chemistry major applicants are encouraged to contact the Graduate Program Office (vb0g@andrew.cmu.edu) early in the application process to discuss their specific coursework and preparation.
Our faculty also participate in related graduate programs:
- Ph.D. in Molecular Biophysics and Structural Biology (Joint University of Pittsburgh -Carnegie Mellon program)
