Date: May 24 2001 Major: Chemistry (This Major's Salary over time) MIT currently does not have a strong Ph.D. program in organic chemistry. What saved me was that I did my research on natural product synthesis and I had to be very independent in my research. Companies viewed this as an important asset. Although I did very well when I interviewed for positions in pharmaceutical companies directly from school, in hind site, there are many programs that are better than MIT. In fact, I have been very involved in recruiting new Ph.D. students, and we have actually stopped interviewing at MIT.
