Student projects will be planned accordingly. Off-campus research requires active participation of a Wellesley Chemistry/Physics faculty member throughout the research period.
Prerequisite: Open by permission to students who have taken at least three chemistry/physics courses.
 
CHPH 355 - Chemical Physics Thesis Research (1st Semester)
The first course in a two-semester investigation of a significant research problem, culminating in the preparation of a thesis and defense of that thesis before a committee of faculty from the Departments of Chemistry and Physics. This route does not lead to departmental honors.
 
CHPH 360 Senior Thesis Research (1st Semester)
The first course in a two-semester investigation of a significant research problem, culminating in departmental honors upon the completion, in the second semester, of a thesis and defense of that thesis before a committee of faculty from the Chemistry and Physics Departments.
Prerequisites: Open by permission to students who have a GPA above 3.5.
 
CHPH 365 - Chemical Physics Thesis Research (2nd Semester)
The second course in a two-semester investigation of a significant chemistry/physics research problem, culminating in the preparation of a thesis and defense of that thesis before a committee of faculty from the chemistry and physics departments. This route does not lead to departmental honors.
