Academics

The B.A. or B.S. degree in chemistry prepares students for further studies in chemistry, biochemistry, or health-related disciplines, and also provides broad scientific training beneficial for energy research, policy, environment, business management, and law.

Yale Chemistry offers opportunities for recent college undergraduates from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds to gain research and clinical experience at Yale through its ESI PREP Program.

The Ph.D. degree is designed to prepare students for a career in scientific research with the tools they need to succeed: detailed knowledge, ability to apply that knowledge, independent thought, communication skills, teamwork, teaching, and safety.
