JHU is among the top 10 Universities in the world in chemistry, their chemistry program is very broad and versatile.
Course Curriculum :
They offer lots of courses in various subjects, you are allowed to take courses outside your department, which makes it really updated. I have even taken courses by some Nobel Laureates. Course syllabi are all very progressive and unique.
Exams :
JHU requires GRE main and sub ( at least for the chemistry program), and TOEFL. GRE ( mine was 326), GRE chemistry, TOEFL ( mine was 109)
Placement :
We have regular job fairs where a lot of companies appear from time to time. The placement rate is quite high for on-campus job searches as well as outside. Ph.D. students often get excellent post-doc positions and jobs after graduation.
Internship :
No, not yet.
Events :
The campus is beautiful and really safe. There are tons of extracurricular activities you can choose from if you want.
Fees :
It’s $57000 for 12 months
Scholarship :
No outside scholarship, I have received full scholarship from the university that covers all of my expenses.
Faculty :
In our department, we have about 20 faculties and student intake every year varies between 20 to 40, so the student-to-faculty ratio is very low. Everyone is very helpful and it’s really easy to reach out to any one of them. Due to the low student-to-faculty ratio, all faculties know almost all of the students closely.
Hostel :
University does not provide any accommodation for graduate students, we need to rent apartments on our own.
