This bifurcation is an acknowledgement of the highly interdisciplinary nature of modern research and that success in biochemical research often benefits from different background knowledge than would be necessary for other areas of chemistry. An applicant for the Chemistry Ph.D. program must meet\u00a0all Graduate School requirements\u00a0plus the requirements of the Chemistry or Biochemistry track to be considered for admission:<\/p> <h4>Chemistry Track<\/h4> <p>The Chemistry Track is designed for undergraduate chemistry majors pursuing research in Analytical Chemistry, Chemistry Education, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, or Physical Chemistry.<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Undergraduate preparation in chemistry that includes at least two courses each of physical and organic chemistry with associated laboratories, and one course each in analytical and inorganic chemistry.<\/li> \t<li>Reason Statement.<\/li> <\/ul> <h4>Biochemistry Track<\/h4> <p>The Biochemistry Track is designed for undergraduate biochemistry (or similar) majors pursuing research in Biochemistry, Chemical Biology, or related fields.<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Undergraduate preparation in biochemistry that includes at least two courses each of biochemistry and organic chemistry with associated laboratories, and one course in each of two of the following areas: analytical, inorganic, or physical chemistry.<\/li> \t<li>Reason Statement.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>A master\u2019s degree is not a prerequisite for admission to the Ph.D. program in chemistry. Applicants may be admitted with specific program-defined course deficiencies provided that the deficiencies amount to no more than two courses. The student is expected to satisfy deficiency requirements within three enrolled semesters. The deficiencies are monitored by the individual graduate program unit. No course credits earned in making up deficiencies may be counted as program credits required for the degree.<\/p> <h3>Reapplication<\/h3> <p>A student who receives the master\u2019s degree must formally reapply for admission to the Graduate School before continuing studies toward the PhD.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"tab-chemistry-phd-academic-requirements\" class=\"uwm-p-tabcontent--pane\"><style>\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist tr:nth-child(even) {\n \t\t\t background-color: #f2f2f2\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_footnotes td, .sc_footnotes th, .sc_footnotes table {  border-left: none;\n  border-right: none; padding: 8px;}\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist {\n\t\t\t\tborder-collapse: collapse;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist td, .sc_courselist th {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 1px solid #ddd;\n\t\t\t\tpadding: 8px;\n        min-width: 40px;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.hourscol{\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: right;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\t\n\t\t\t.hidden.noscript{\n\t\t\t\tdisplay: none;\n\t\t\t}\t\n\t\n\t.notinpdf{\n\t\tdisplay:none;\n\t}\n\t\t\t.areaheader, .symcol {\n\t\t\t\tfont-weight: bold;\n\t\t\t}\n\t.HU { background-color: #ffce9c; }\n\t\t\t.SS { background-color: #f0e68c; }\n\t\t\t.NS { background-color: #ceefbd; }\n\t\t\t.OWCB { background-color: #ccccff; }\n\t\t\t.QLB { background-color: #ccffff; }\n\t\n\tdl {\n  display: grid;\n  grid-template-columns: max-content auto;\n}\n\ndt {\n  grid-column-start: 1;\n}\n\ndd {\n  grid-column-start: 2;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n<h2>Credits and Courses<\/h2> <p>Minimum degree requirement is 54 graduate credits beyond the bachelor\u2019s degree, at least 27 of which must be earned in residence at 51ÁÔÆæ.

The first stage of the student\u2019s program includes general preparation as in the master\u2019s program, as well as specialized courses in principal areas of interest and the initiation of research.<\/p> <p>Admission to the second stage of the PhD program is based upon satisfactory performance in courses, research, and in departmental examinations. Upon entrance, the student takes proficiency examinations in analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry. Departmental approval to continue in the doctoral program is attained by passing an advanced qualifying examination in the major area. This examination must be completed by the end of the fourth semester of study. In the second stage of the program, the student concentrates on the development and execution of original research. Additional coursework may also be required to complete the program of study.<\/p> \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"tab-chemistry-phd-other-requirements\" class=\"uwm-p-tabcontent--pane\"><style>\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist tr:nth-child(even) {\n \t\t\t background-color: #f2f2f2\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_footnotes td, .sc_footnotes th, .sc_footnotes table {  border-left: none;\n  border-right: none; padding: 8px;}\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist {\n\t\t\t\tborder-collapse: collapse;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.sc_courselist td, .sc_courselist th {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 1px solid #ddd;\n\t\t\t\tpadding: 8px;\n        min-width: 40px;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\n\t\t\t.hourscol{\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: right;\n\t\t\t}\t\t\t\n\t\t\t.hidden.noscript{\n\t\t\t\tdisplay: none;\n\t\t\t}\t\n\t\n\t.notinpdf{\n\t\tdisplay:none;\n\t}\n\t\t\t.areaheader, .symcol {\n\t\t\t\tfont-weight: bold;\n\t\t\t}\n\t.HU { background-color: #ffce9c; }\n\t\t\t.SS { background-color: #f0e68c; }\n\t\t\t.NS { background-color: #ceefbd; }\n\t\t\t.OWCB { background-color: #ccccff; }\n\t\t\t.QLB { background-color: #ccffff; }\n\t\n\tdl {\n  display: grid;\n  grid-template-columns: max-content auto;\n}\n\ndt {\n  grid-column-start: 1;\n}\n\ndd {\n  grid-column-start: 2;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n<h2>Additional Requirements<\/h2> <h3>Professor as Advisor<\/h3> <p>The student must have a major professor to advise and supervise the student\u2019s studies as specified in Graduate School regulations. The entering student is assigned a temporary advisor; a permanent advisor must be selected by the end of the first semester of study. The major professor serves as the student\u2019s research mentor.<\/p> <h3>Residence<\/h3> <p>The student must meet minimum\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/graduateschool\/students\/academic-policies-and-procedures\/doctoral-resources\/doctoral-requirements\/#residence\" target=\"_blank\">Graduate School residence requirements<\/a>.<\/p> <h3>Doctoral Preliminary Examination<\/h3> <p>The student must take a doctoral preliminary examination. This serves to qualify the student for formal admission by the Graduate School to candidacy for the degree.<\/p> <h3>Dissertation<\/h3> <p>Candidates must each present a dissertation reporting the results of independent, original research carried out under the direction of their major professor. At least three months before the Dissertation Defense, at a time when most of the experimental work has been completed, the student meets with the Examining Committee for a preliminary review of the research to be described in the dissertation.<\/p> <h3>Dissertation Defense<\/h3> <p>The candidate must, as the final step toward the degree, defend the dissertation in an oral examination. The candidate also presents a public dissertation seminar, describing research in completed form for the Department and others who may be interested. A student who does not pass this examination within five years of admission to candidacy may be required to take another preliminary examination and be readmitted to candidacy.<\/p> <h3>Time Limit<\/h3> <p>All degree requirements must be completed within 10 years from the date of initial enrollment in the doctoral program.
