Master in Chemie

Since the founding of Bryn Mawr in 1885, the Department of Chemistry has offered programs leading to either the M.A. or Ph.D. degrees. The graduate program in chemistry is designed to prepare men and women for professional careers in research and teaching by providing them with a sound background in modern chemistry.

Research faculty at Bryn Mawr pursue research problems in chemistry at the forefront of the discipline. These include the development of anti-cancer drugs, new nanotechnology materials; high throughput techniques for screening catalysts; studies of interactions of nucleic acids with proteins and transition metal complexes; and macromolecules' theoretical computation.

Bryn Mawr is a distinguished women’s college located on a beautiful residential campus outside a major metropolitan area. Two distinctive coed graduate schools and a post-baccalaureate premedical program enrich the College community and offer advanced study opportunities.

At Bryn Mawr, students choose from various majors in the sciences, social sciences, and the humanities. The College is a leader in academic innovation, focusing on putting learning into action through research, fieldwork, community and social justice engagement, and internships. Bryn Mawr further expands students’ options to learn and explore through long-standing partnerships with Haverford and Swarthmore Colleges and the University of Pennsylvania and through the cultural and social resources of Philadelphia.
