As Chemical Engineers, students will have diverse and exciting career options. Students develop skills needed to design processes for producing products made by chemical or biological means, including consumer products, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, semiconductors, biomaterials, pulp and paper, polymers, and more. The Chemical Engineering Department offers the degrees of Doctor of Philosophy, Master of Science (thesis and non-thesis options), and Master of Engineering in Chemical Engineering. Minimum requirements for these degrees are given in the Graduate Degrees section of this catalog.
The Ph.D., M.E., and M.S. degrees in chemical engineering require coursework in three core areas:
- The chemical engineering basis area, consisting of three core courses in the mathematical, molecular, and continuum bases of chemical engineering
- The chemical engineering science and systems area, consisting of a selection of courses in such areas as transport phenomena, electrochemical engineering, thermodynamics, kinetics, reaction engineering, process control, separation processes, and heat and mass transfer
- The research specialty area consists of courses designed to build depth in a field of specialization. Courses may be from other academic units or chemical engineering courses, such as colloid science, corrosion, polymer science, advanced materials, and biochemical engineering.
