Chemical and Biological Engineering (CBE)
Chemical Engineering (BS) is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org.
Our department name, Chemical and Biological Engineering, reflects the forward-looking integration of chemical engineering, chemical sciences and biological sciences. With a specialization in bioprocess and biochemical engineering and emphases in advanced materials (nano materials, polymers, ceramics, materials processing, corrosion, or solid state/semi-conductors), biomedical engineering, energy technology, environmental engineering, and petroleum engineering you can personalize your education. An accelerated Master of Science (BS + MS) degree program is also available for qualified undergraduate students.

Chemical Engineering Curriculum/Checklist
Although a minor in chemical engineering is not available, you can obtain a specialization in bioprocess and biochemical engineering or an emphasis in emerging areas such as advanced materials, biomedical engineering, energy technology, environmental engineering, or petroleum engineering by tailoring your elective courses. Students are responsible for checking with their advisors for any program modifications that may occur after the publication of this catalog. 130 credits required for graduation
Curriculum Notes
*Fulfills General Education requirement. Students should consult the “General Education Requirements ” section of this catalog for a complete listing of all general education requirements. Optional emphases and specialization in ChE:
The academic advisor recommends and approves courses to take if students are interested in an emphasis in one of these areas: advanced materials (nano materials, polymers, ceramics, materials processing, corrosion, or solid state/semi-conductors), biomedical engineering, business, energy technology, environmental engineering, or petroleum engineering. A specialization in bioprocess and biochemical engineering is also offered. Chemical Engineering: Bioprocess and Biochemical Engineering Specialization, BS BIOL Elective (3 cr hr):
