Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
In the past decade, the scope of chemical and biomolecular engineering has expanded dramatically. While chemical engineers continue to work in the chemical and petroleum industries, they are just as likely to be employed in biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies, at electronics manufacturing facilities, or in the environmental divisions of corporations or government institutions. In each of the industries, the chemical engineering concepts of transport phenomena, reaction kinetics, and thermodynamics are fundamental.
EPP's Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering program prepares students for success in this field. Students acquire a broad range of skills in the basic sciences and related engineering fields, in addition to advanced training in core chemical and biomolecular engineering competencies. Students have the opportunity to pursue a concentration in biochemical engineering, environmentally conscious processing, or polymer engineering. Highlights include:
- Classes conveniently scheduled weekday evenings and Saturdays at academic centers
- Faculty include accomplished, practicing engineers
- Flexible curricula
- The option to complete a concentration in biochemical engineering, environmentally conscious processing, or polymer engineering
- No thesis required
Programs offered:
- Master of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
- Master of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a Concentration in Biochemical Engineering
- Master of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a Concentration in Environmentally Conscious Processing
- Master of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a Concentration in Polymer Engineering
