Ph.D. in Textile Chemistry studies the chemical processes involved in the manufacture, treatment, and performance of textile fibers, textiles, and materials. The program, which typically lasts 3-5 years, integrates instruction in organic chemistry, polymer science, dyeing, finishing processes, and textile engineering with advanced research. Students learn about fiber modification, textile coatings, sustainable textile production, and the creation of functional textiles for specialized purposes such as medical or sports textiles. Graduates are prepared to work in academia, the textile industry, or research and development, contributing to advances in textile manufacturing, sustainability, and fabric performance and durability.
