This timeline reflects the milestones for a typical full-‐time graduate student in the Ph.D. chemistry program that you and your advisor should keep in mind. Adjustments to the schedule can be made for non-‐academic, extenuating circumstances (e.g. leave of absence, illness, pregnancy, parenting, etc.).
