Program Description


Engineering builds on a strong traditional mathematics, science, and engineering core. The Chemical Engineering emphasis focuses on design and operation of chemical processes and optimization of production.

Total Credits: 135


Major: Concentration Requirements - 32


Concentration Electives - 3


Chosen from ENGR and CPTR courses in consultation with an advisor.

Andrews Core Experience


Students must fullful the Andrews Core Experience requirements for Professional Degrees  and note the following specific requirements.

Maintaining Academic Standing


No grade lower than C- may be counted toward any degree requirement. An Engineering or Computing course may be repeated only once. Students may repeat only two Engineering or Computing courses. Students will be asked to withdraw from the program if they fail two Engineering or Computing courses in the same semester. Readmission will be considered on an individual basis. All prerequisites for ENGR courses must be passed with a minimum grade of C- before entry into the class it is required for. Transfer credits need to be submitted a minimum of six weeks prior to beginning of classes. Transfer students will be considered on an individual basis.
