Chemical Engineering Bs Ch E

Definition: The Department of Chemical Engineering strives for nationally recognized excellence in engineering education and research by using modern, hands-on, and active learning experiences to prepare undergraduate students for professional success, and to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public and protect the environment in performance of their professional duties. --The Department of Chemical Engineering produces engineers with a strong foundation of technical, communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills required for professional success, consistent with the following objectives:--1. Pursue careers where they apply their engineering and problem-solving skills.-2. Pursue advanced studies or other forms of continuing education.-3. Value their University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) chemical engineering education and endorse the program and its students.--This four-year baccalaureate (B.S.Ch.E.) degree program emphasizes the development of the student's ability to analyze and design chemical processing systems. By the end of the program, the student must demonstrate the ability to solve engineering problems, have a sensitivity to the social and environmental impacts of the engineering profession, and the ability to maintain a high level of competency.--Chemical engineering graduates are qualified for employment in diverse industries, ranging from those that manufacture inorganic chemicals, petrochemicals, plastics, synthetic fibers, paper and pulp, and pharmaceuticals to those that process minerals, materials, and hazardous wastes. - -Graduates are qualified for assignments that include plant operations, process development, process control, project engineering, or technical sales, and frequently pursue engineering management later in their careers. They are also well qualified to continue with professional or graduate education.--The chemical engineering curriculum is based on fundamental sciences including physics, chemistry, and mathema Edit
