化学工程学士学位

在化学工程课程中，学生学习将化学，物理和数学应用于工业规模的化学产品生产，包括石油产品，聚合物，药品，电子设备和食品。该计划还探讨了化学工程在环境保护，废物处理，替代能源的创建以及其他领域（如微电子材料和纳米技术）中的应用。化学工程学士学位课程提供广泛领域的专业知识，包括热力学，分离过程，运输现象，反应器设计，燃烧和过程控制。学生可以使用选修课程来专门研究这些领域和其他领域。该计划的目标是为学生提供从事行业或政府职业的机会，并为他们在研究生层次的进一步学习做好准备。作为芝加哥都会区一所公立大学中唯一的化学
In the Chemical Engineering curriculum, students learn to apply chemistry, physics, and mathematics to the industrial-scale production of chemicals, including petroleum products, polymers, pharmaceuticals,electronic devices, and foods. This program also explores chemical engineering applications in environmental protection,waste treatment, the creation of alternative energy sources, and other frontiers, such as microelectronic materials and nanotechnology. The BS in Chemical Engineering program offers expertise in a wide variety of areas, including thermodynamics, separation processes, transport phenomena, reactor design, combustion, and process control. Students may use elective courses to specialize in these and other areas. The program's goal is to prepare students for careers in industry or government, and for further study at the graduate level. As the only chemical engineering department at a public university in the Chicago metropolitan area, this program provides unique opportunities for students to interact with world-class industries through research projects and internship programs.
