| Most of my coursework is in Polymer Science, a specialized field of Chemistry, and therefore has a PSC designation on my Graduate Transcript rather than CHE. |
| The courses with their full titles (and descriptions, when illustrative) are below, excluding seminar, dissertation, and research courses. Courses that were primarily Organic Chemistry are marked with an *. |
| Unfortunately, while the titles (or descriptions) of the courses make it clear that they are Chemistry-related topics, the abbreviated titles on the transcript do not illustrate that. |
