(One course must contain engineering design) Total 135 Chemical Engineering Although chemical engineering has existed as a field of engineering for only about 80 years, its name is no longer completely descriptive of this dynamic, growing profession. The work of the chemical engineer is neither restricted to the chemical industry nor limited to chemical changes or chemistry. Instead, modem chemical engineers, who are also called process engi- neers, are concerned with all the physical and chemical changes of matter to produce economi- cally a product or result that is useful to mankind. More than most fields, the education of the chemical engineer has been based on the fundamental sciences of physics and chemistry, on mathematical and computer techniques, and on basic engineering principles. Such a broad background has made the chemical engineer extremely versatile and capable of working in a wide variety of industries: chemical, petroleum, aerospace, nuclear, materials, microelectronics, sanitation, food processing, and computer tech- nology. The chemical industry alone provides an opportunity for the chemical engineer to par- ticipate in the research, development, design, or operation of plants for the production of new synthetic fibers, plastics, chemical fertilizers, vitamins, antibiotics, rocket fuels, nuclear fuels, paper pulp, photographic products, paints, fuel cells, transistors, and the thousands of chemicals that are used as intermediates in the manufac- ture of the above products. In practice, the activities of the chemical engineer are sufficiently diversified to attract a wide range of talents and abilities. The chemical engineers working in process design determine the sequence of steps to be followed in produc- ing a useful product and calculate the sizes of the equipment required and the total cost; those working in development research do small scale studies on new processes or products; those working in production improve and coordinate the operation of plants and equipment. Others do fundamental research on the laws of science and their application. Many chemical engineers work in technical sales, cost estimation, patent law, and plant supervision. A chemical engi- neering background is often the best route to top-level management positions. Degree Programs: The following degrees are offered by the Chemical Engineering depart- ment: Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineer- ing, Bachelor of Science, Master of Engineering, Master of Science, Doctor of Philosophy. Admission Requirements: Applicants should understand that admission to this program is a selective process. Admission will be based on a student's whole record including educational objectives, courses completed, quality of aca- demic record, and other important facts. Priori- ty in admission will be given to those students whose potential on the basis of the entire record indicates the greatest likelihood of success in the program. Applicants should have a grade point aver- age in pre-engineering technical courses of 2.5 or higher (calculus, chemistry, and physics). All Chemical Engineering majors shall main- tain satisfactory progress (GPA of 2.0 or higher) in Chemical Engineering professional courses as well as in overall record. Also, to proceed to succeeding courses, C grades or better must be obtained in ECH 3012, 3023, 3203, and CAP 3210. However, since enrollment in selected courses prerequisite to senior level professional courses may be limited by insufficient staff and facilities, minimum performance may not guar- antee completion of the curriculum. All prospective students are urged to contact the department directly for more detailed infor- mation about careers and degree programs.
