The MS degree in chemistry may be obtained by completing (1) a program that includes the preparation of a master s thesis, or (2) a program involving only course work. Both programs require a minimum of 27 units, of which up to six units may be for the master s thesis. Course work for the master s degree may be taken on a part-time basis, but thesis research can be undertaken only by full-time graduate students. Thus, only the master s degree without thesis can be earned entirely on a part-time basis.The Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Program (STEP) is a three- or four-semester professional MS degree offered in chemistry as well as in biotechnology and physics. Students enter the Chemistry Entrepreneurship program with a bachelor s, master s, or doctoral degree in a chemistry-related field. The program consists of advanced courses in chemistry, business, and technology innovation and an entrepreneurial project with technical content in an existing company or new venture.
