About the course

Chemical engineers touch all aspects of our lives, such as the production, distribution and maintenance of a safe supply of food and water, medicines that keep us healthy, the clothes that keep us warm, and the fuel that we use for transportation. Below you’ll find more information about working as a chemical engineer and the ISU Chemical and Biological Engineering experience. You can even begin the process of applying for admission with one click. One of the most satisfying aspects of a career in chemical engineering is the broad array of both career paths. As the first head of Iowa State’s chemical engineering department, O. R. Sweeney, often said, “chemical engineers can solve all the world’s problems.” We welcome you as someone who would like to pursue that goal. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships

How to apply

Entry requirements for Iowa State University

Admission criteria are established by both the Graduate College and by the graduate program.

　　Iowa State requires a bachelor?s or higher degree from a regionally-accredited college or university prior to beginning graduate studies. Because holding a degree from a regionally accredited institution is a fundamental requirement for graduate study at Iowa State University, no appeals to waive this requirement are considered.

　　International degrees must be comparable to a US bachelor?s degree or higher from a college or university regionally accredited/recognized by the Ministry of Education in that country.

　　3-year degrees from India, Bangladesh, Canada (excluding Quebec), Nepal, and Pakistan are not accepted. 3-year degrees from other countries are reviewed on an individual basis.

　　A minimum cumulative grade point average equivalent to at least a 3.0 on a 4.0 scale (B grade) is required for admission.

　　The English proficiency requirements of the Graduate College and the graduate program to which you have applied must both be met prior to enrollment.

　　There is no university-wide requirement that graduate applicants submit results from the Graduate Records Examination (GRE) or the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT), however, most programs do require one or the other.
