ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ

The ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of , under the commission’s General Criteria and Program Criteria for Chemical, Biochemical, Biomolecular and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.

Program Educational Objectives

The Chemical Engineering bachelor degree program’s educational objective statement is directed towards the career accomplishments and expectations of the alumni. The objectives of the program are that recent alumni become successful in their professional careers, and that they continue on a path of professional development.

Chemical Engineering alumni:

• Are on track for a fulfilling and successful professional career.
• Are contributors and leaders in providing solutions to important societal challenges as responsible and ethical professionals.
• Have taken ownership of their own personal growth and further professional development.

The faculty members of the Department of Chemical Engineering strive to continuously improve the program and the curriculum as well as laboratory facilities to ensure the professional career success of our recent graduates. The goal is to prepare students for a wide range of career routes that use chemical engineering principles with a solid foundation in engineering, math, science, and societal awareness. The scope of this program is broadened by courses from general education as well as specialized technical elective courses in chemical engineering and other engineering disciplines. ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ develop teamwork skills and gain interdisciplinary experience particularly in laboratory courses, lecture courses with laboratory components, and the capstone design class that require team projects. This program provides ample opportunities for students to develop communication skills such as oral and poster presentations as well as written technical reports. ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ are encouraged to participate in life-long learning activities such as professional meetings on or off campus and field trips. The goal is to have a comprehensive, student-centered program that can allow us to meet the educational objectives.
