 GRADUATE COURSES
 Requirements for admission to graduate work for those students holding the degree
of B. Ch. E., or its equivalent, who desire to major in chemical engineering:
 1. Such students may become candidates for the degree of Master of Science in
Engineering or Doctor of Philosophy.
 2. The following courses, or their equivalents, are required for unconditional
entrance to graduate work in chemical engineering. Courses in each of the four funda-
mental branches of chemistry (inorganic, analytical, organic and physical); one hour
of chemical literature; six hours of chemical engineering thermodynamics; five hours of
chemical engineering design; two hours of chemical engineering economics; ten hours of
unit operations, including laboratory work.
 3. Each graduate student, registering for the first time, must take comprehensive
written or oral examinations over the field of chemical engineering. These examinations
are given during registration week. The results of these examinations are utilized by
the Special Supervisory Committee in arranging the student's study program.
 4. To satisfy the course requirement in the major subject, each graduate student
 in chemical engineering desiring to become a candidate for the degree of Master of
 Science in Engineering must take a minimum of 12 credits in Chemical Engineering
 courses on the graduate level. The actual courses required will be prescribed by the
 department.

 CG. 511.-Organic Chemical Processing. 3 hours or its equivalent. 3
credits.
 The fundamental principles involved in the manufacture of organic compounds.
