CHEME-MS - Chemical Engineering (MS)

All 45 units for the Chemical Engineering MS Degree must be completed at Stanford.

The Department of Chemical Engineering is committed to academic advising to support our MS students’ education and professional development. When most effective, this advising relationship entails collaborative engagement by the advisor and the advisee. As a best practice, advising expectations should be discussed and reviewed to ensure mutual understanding. Both the advisor and the advisee are expected to maintain professionalism and integrity.

At the start of graduate study, generally at the beginning of the autumn quarter, each student is assigned a master’s program advisor.

Our department’s student services office is also essential for the master’s advising team. They inform students and advisors about university and department requirements, procedures, and opportunities and maintain the official records of advising assignments and approvals.  

Finally, graduate students are active contributors to the advising relationship, proactively seeking academic and professional guidance and taking responsibility for informing themselves of policies and degree requirements for their graduate program.

See Graduate Advising for a statement of university policy on graduate advising.
