The School of Polymers and High Performance Materials offers programs of study leading to the degrees of the Bachelor of Science in polymer science, the Master of Science in polymer science and engineering, and the doctorate in polymer science and engineering. The school was awarded Commendation status by the Board of Trustees in 1983 as a result of a statewide five-year program review. For information concerning the master’s and doctoral degrees, see the Graduate Bulletin.

The objective of the undergraduate curriculum is to prepare the graduate to enter the industrial community, to continue studies at the graduate level, or to pursue a variety of professional degrees. The Bachelor of Science in polymer science constitutes an interdisciplinary program of study; therefore, no minor is required. Enrollment in any polymer science class requires that the student has achieved a grade of C or higher in the designated prerequisite course(s). No polymer science course in which a student receives a grade less than C will count toward the polymer science major. The School of Polymers and High Performance Materials is a nationally ranked, top-10 program.
