Our chemical engineering curriculum gives the student a thorough background in chemistry, mathematics, physics, engineering science and engineering design and analysis, as well as the skills to understand and solve problems.
Our chemical engineering students have numerous opportunities to use "real" processes to aid their studies. As a result of student interactions with the various processes, they develop a greater appreciation and understanding of the fundamental principles behind each of the processes. Students get hands-on experience in using equipment such as computer aided process controls, a double effect evaporator and a variety of separations equipment.
The Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering is accredited
by the EAC (Engineering Accreditation Commission)
of ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology).
Students working for an ABET accredited degree
will meet with an academic advisor in their department as early as possible to make themselves fully aware of
the ABET requirements, not only in General Education, but also in other areas, such as math/science requirements.
Requirements are subject to change and current requirements for all
programs are posted at http://www.abet.org.
Minor in Chemistry offered by the Chemistry & Biochemistry Department
