Prospective Students

The Department of Chemistry is committed to assisting underrepresented minorities (URM) during their transition to the Chemistry Graduate Program. Below are some helpful resources:

Visitation Program

The Graduate School at Purdue University has several opportunities for URM Students. As a prospective URM graduate student, you have the chance to visit our institution during the Fall semester by applying to the Graduate Diversity Visitation Program. The deadline is early October so consider applying as soon as possible! If you are selected, you will network with faculty and current URM students in the Chemistry Department. The GDVP is the perfect opportunity to get a close look at the graduate student life!

Applying to Grad School

We know filling out graduate school applications can be overwhelming and scary, but we are here to help! You can email Professor Jean Chmielewski chml@purdue.edu to get more information. Learn more about applying to graduate school.
