[交流] 美国Virginia Commonwealth University化学系2019年招收秋季研究生

Virginia Commonwealth University （VCU, 弗吉尼亚联邦大学）位于美国弗吉尼亚州州府里士满，是美国130所一类研究型大学之一(R1: Doctoral Universities – Highest research activity)，世界大学学术排名稳定在全美前一百名，世界两百名左右。VCU化学系在生命分析化学，纳米科学，化学生物学，物理化学等领域科研实力雄厚，并与VCU医学院建立了广泛的合作关系。化学系全职教授曾获得2002年诺贝尔化学奖。化学系博士研究生将享有每年$24,000 至 $25,000的工资，学费由学校或导师全额支付。

2019年起，VCU化学系特别优先考虑来自中国的研究生申请，对条件优秀的申请者可免除申请费。欢迎符合条件的申请人联系王学伟博士（wangxue@umich.edu）或直接提交申请(https://vcugrad.liaisoncas.com/applicant-ux/#/login)。

王学伟博士（现任密西根大学Research Scientist）主要从事化学传感器和医学植入物的研究，现主持全球最大的糖尿病基金会（JDRF）资助的人工胰腺系统（Artificial Pancreas）的研究和密歇根大学资助的可穿戴光化学传感器的研究。王学伟博士将于2019年夏季在VCU组建分析化学课题组，热烈欢迎来自中国的研究生。

与申请相关的部分信息如下：
1. Is the GRE required and what is the minimum GRE score?
The general GRE is required. The GRE subject test is optional. Individual exceptions to this requirement may be considered for students with previous graduate degrees from US colleges/universities. The Department of Chemistry currently does not have a minimum score, but considering the competitive nature of our program, it’s advisable to prepare for this exam and obtain the best score possible. For international students, the combined score (verbal and quantitative reasoning) should be 300 or higher with a minimum writing score of 3.0 or above to be competitive for admission.

2. What is the minimum TOEFL score?
We recommend a TOEFL score of 92 or higher (internet based). Scores must be current (within 2-years).

3. Can the IELTS substitute for the TOEFL? What is an acceptable score for the IELTS?
Satisfactory scores on the IELTS can be used as evidence of English proficiency. The university minimum IELTS score requirement is 6.5, but Chemistry prefers an IELTS score of 7.0 or higher.

4. What are the VCU codes for the TOEFL and GRE exams?
GRE= 5570; TOEFL=5570

5. What is the minimum GPA?
“For admission to graduate study at VCU, we prefer a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0.” In cases where the undergraduate GPA is below 3.0, additional factors that include performance in the last 60 hours of course work, GRE scores, and letters of reference, may be weighted more heavily in the admissions assessment. For students with earned graduate degrees from accredited institutions, the graduate GPA may be the primary basis for consideration.

6. What is the Spring/Fall application deadlines for domestic and international students?
Application deadlines are particularly important for international students because of the amount of time required to process applications and the time needed to obtain visas. Students should apply well in advance of the international application deadlines. We suggest an application deadline of March 15 for Fall admission and October 15 for Spring admission. Excellent applications may still be considered until late April for Fall admission. However, early applications are encouraged.

7. Is it possible to get application fee waiver?
International students should contact Dr. Indika Arachchige at iuarachchige@vcu.edu with scanned copies of GRE (general), TOEFL or IELTS score reports, and academic transcript(s) to request fee waivers.
