PhD Dissertation Research

Catalog description

The PhD dissertation highlights the innovative research contributions from a doctoral student to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry. The students would be expected to (a) conduct basic and applied research in the field, (b) retrieve, and review research literature, (c) provide periodic updates and project reports, and (d) write manuscripts for publication in scientific journals or presentations at conferences and meetings. This is a long-term process that requires significant time and effort from the student. PhD Dissertation Research is a research course designed to provide necessary time and guidance for the student to work on cutting edge research towards the Ph.D. degree. This course can and will be taken multiple times over the duration of the program.
