O'Connell. Graduate Coordinator: H. H. Lee. Professors: S. S. Block; R. W. Fahien; R. J. Gordon; L. E. Johns. Jr,; F. P. May; J. P. O'Connell; D. O. Shah; R. D. Walker, Jr. (Emeritus). Associate Professors: G. B. Hoflund; D. W. Kirmse; H. H. Lee. Assistant Professors: T. J. Anderson; G. B. Westermann-Clark. Graduate work for the Ph.D., M.E., and M.S. degrees in chemical engineering emphasizes these areas: (1) chemical engineering science-transport phenomena, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, microstructure of matter, and materials science; (2) chemical engineering systems-chemical reaction engineering, process control, process dynamics, optimization, separation processes; and (3) interdisci- plinary chemical engineering-energy conversion and fuel cells, polymer science, microelectronics, process economics, biofluid mechanics, and bioengineering. Beyond the Graduate School requirements, admission to graduate work in chemical engineering depends upon the qualifications of the student, whose record and recommendations are carefully and individually studied. During registration week each graduate student register- ing for the first time is counseled to develop an initial study program. The results of a brief examination cover- ing the field of chemical engineering are also utilized by the graduate committee to guide the student. As a conse- quence, a program may.include some undergraduate courses, if needed, to prepare for graduate course work. The program of all students will involve research experience through the courses ECH 6905, 6971, or 7980. All new graduate students are expected to become proficient in computer programming during their first semester on campus.
