The PhD in Chemical Engineering (Doctorat en genie chimique) at Universite de Sherbrooke is a 90-credit research doctorate leading to the Philosophiae Doctor degree, delivered full-time on the Sherbrooke campus under a regular or industry-partnership study regime. It prepares graduates to become high-level professionals who design and implement innovative solutions to complex engineering and technological research-and-development problems, or to pursue academic research careers. Students deepen specialized expertise, independently conduct research projects, and develop rigorous approaches to solving scientific and technological problems, culminating in a doctoral thesis. Research areas in the department span energy (biofuels, fuel cells), environment and sustainable development (agri-food, air, water, green processes and biomass, waste valorization), materials (aluminum, surface chemistry, nanomaterials, polymers), plasma applications, biological processes and biotechnology (biomaterials, bioprocesses, tissue engineering), and pharmaceutical process engineering. The program admits at the Fall, Winter and Summer terms.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.00 / 4.3
Admission Requirements: Applicants must have completed a master's degree in chemical engineering or an equivalent (except under the accelerated master's-to-doctorate pathway) and must have demonstrated the aptitude required for research. Candidates must secure the agreement of an eligible faculty supervisor. A cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.3 scale (or an equivalent academic record) is required. An accelerated pathway from the master's program is available to students who maintain continuity of their research project and supervisor, have completed at least 21 credits of the master's program including its research-methodology and research-project-definition courses plus 15 elective credits with a GPA of at least 3.0/4.3, and receive a favourable recommendation from their research supervisor.
