The Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology offers graduate courses in the form of “modules,” which are the formal equivalent of one-quarter of a full graduate course. 600-level half courses are also available for credit, to a maximum of one half course.

Modules marked with a plus sign (+) may be taken more than once for credit, as long as the content is different each time the course is taken. Brief descriptions of all graduate modules are available on the departmental website (http://www.chemistry.mcmaster.ca/graduate). Not all graduate courses are offered in a given year-please consult the website for current courses. Student are free to include EDUCATION 750  (Principles and Practice of University Teaching) in their program, but this cannot be counted towards their course requirements for the degree.

Required Course for all New Graduate Students


CHEM 700 / Tools for the Chemistry Profession  

CHEM 701 / Chemistry Colloquium
