Engineering the Future
The UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering links the impact of the sciences with advances in technology and engineering, spanning traditional boundaries.
UChicago PME was built with interdisciplinary research in mind. Our students receive an education and training grounded in a variety of disciplines – from physics to chemistry and electrical engineering to materials science, and more. Students graduate prepared for a competitive career in industry, government, or academia.
