A minor in chemical engineering will help students consider the reaction scale-up needed to work in the production industry. With this background, there is a very wide variety of industries that one can enter, including energy, biotech, pharmaceuticals, materials, chemicals, and foods. 18 credits are required for completion of this minor.

Program Outcomes

By the completion of this minor, students will be able to:

• Analyze thermodynamic systems
• Solve fluid dynamics problems
• Apply appropriate balance equations for a given reactor scheme
