General requirements

  • Most students entering Ph.D. or M.S. programmes in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry are expected to have majored in chemistry, physics, biochemistry or the biological sciences; however, applications will be welcomed from students with degrees in other fields, provided their records indicate ability to complete the programme successfully. 
  • The desired undergraduate background generally should include courses in organic and physical chemistry, physics, calculus and the biological sciences. GRE scores are not required. Foreign students must also pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a score of 550 or better to be admitted into the UMGSB graduate programmes.

Student insurance

Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:

  • Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
  • Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
  • Liability
  • Home contents and baggage
  • Accidents
  • Legal aid

We partnered with Aon to provide you with the best affordable student insurance, for a carefree experience away from home.
