BS in Chemical Engineering

Graduates of the Chemical Engineering Program achieve success in one or more of the following within a few years of graduation:

1. Careers in industries that require technical expertise in chemical engineering.
2. Leadership positions in industries that require technical expertise in chemical engineering.
3. Graduate-level studies in chemical engineering and related technical or scientific fields (e.g. biomedical or environmental engineering, materials science).
4. Careers outside of engineering that take advantage of an engineering education, such as business, management, finance, law, medicine, or education.
5. A commitment to life-long learning and service within their chosen profession.

Upon graduation, we expect our students to have:

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
