The Graduate Program was established in 1972 with a Masters in Science option. Today the department offers programs leading to PhD in Chemical Engineering and Master in Science (MS) or Master in Engineering (ME) degrees.
Our graduate program has generated million of dollars in research proposals during the last years and has obtained funding from agencies and institutions such as the National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Department of Energy (DOE), Department of Defense (DOD), and Sandía National Laboratories (SNL). For instance, our faculty submitted an equivalent of $10M in research proposals during the Fall 2002 term. As a result of the research activity, the Department's faculty gave more than 60 presentations in Technical Conferences and other activities, and submitted almost 40 articles for publication during the 1993-97 period.
