Chemistry & Chemical Engineering

Our unique combination of chemistry and chemical engineering in a single department provides a stimulating environment for students and faculty to interact with ideas and projects that involve both fundamental chemical principles and practical engineering applications of chemistry.

The chemical engineering major is fully accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE). Throughout the curriculum, we provide up-to-date computer control and data acquisition equipment combined with the same computer process design software used in industry.

The chemistry major allows a large flexibility for students to minor or even double-major in a second related discipline while retaining the full chemistry curriculum recommended by the American Chemical Society. Fundamental principles are taught and analytical instruments are used throughout the curriculum.
