Overview

The Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at the University of New Mexico offers the Ph.D. and M.S.degrees in Chemistry. Students work on cutting-edge research projects in nationally and internationally recognized research laboratories. The Department has four primary research thrusts: Biological Chemistry/Chemical Biology/Medicinal Chemistry. Catalysis and Synthesis. Theoretical/Computational Chemistry. Physical Chemistry/Energy/Materials. The interdisciplinary nature of these thrusts provides students with a well-rounded background and many of the graduates obtain top positions upon graduation. Please visit faculty members' pages for specific information regarding their research interests. The close proximity to both Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories as well as the Air Force Research Laboratory at nearby Kirtland AFB offers yet another unique experience to students through collaborative projects with university faculty. Several of the faculty are also closely associated with these organizations or have official joint appointments. Interdisciplinary graduate research programs (e.g., Nano-science and Microsystems, NSMS, Center for Biomedical Engineering, CBME, and the Center for High technology Materials, CHTM) are available to students and many C&CB faculty are associated with these programs. The faculty obtain research grants from the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and other government and private sources of research support.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
