化学工程学士学位

化学工程师站在生物技术和生物医学，半导体制造和数据存储设备以及先进材料的最前沿。化学工程还广泛应用于环境保护和修复，工艺开发和安全以及危险废物管理。新墨西哥大学的化学工程本科课程提供了数学，物理，化学和工程科学基础方面的广泛培训。这些与化学工程“核心”集成在一起，其中包括热力学，热量，动量和质量传递，化学反应工程，设计和过程控制。我们一半以上的本科生参加了我们学院的前沿研究项目，有时会带来旅行和出席会议的机会。在令人兴奋的研究领域中，UNM化学工程师运用生物学原理解决用于癌症治疗的药物输送问题，并了解退化
Chemical engineers have long played key roles in a diverse set of industries that include petroleum, food, pharmaceuticals, artificial fibers, petrochemicals, plastics and ceramics. In these areas, chemical engineers design and develop the processes for large-scale manufacturing that result in affordable products that are essential to our way of life.<br><br>Chemical engineers are on the forefront of rapidly developing areas that include biotechnology and biomedicine, semiconductor manufacturing and data storage devices, and advanced materials with precisely-controlled microstructures. Chemical engineering is also widely applied to environmental protection and remediation, process safety, and hazardous waste management. The chemical engineering course of study at UNM offers broad training in the fundamentals of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and the engineering sciences. These are integrated with the chemical engineering "core," which includes thermodynamics; heat, momentum, and mass transport; chemical reaction engineering; design; and process control.
