Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

· The students will be prepared to assume positions in industry or research institutions that require knowledge of chemical engineering principles. 

· The students will be prepared to demonstrate leadership, teamwork, and communication skills. 

· The students will be committed to lifelong learning, ethical conduct, and be able to meet the constantly emerging needs of the chemical engineering profession.

· The students will be educated in chemical engineering fundamentals and modern computational tools that enable them to succeed in graduate programs and research in chemical engineering. 

Student Outcomes

Enrollment Data

45

Footnotes:

This table provides official fall-term enrollment figures (snap shot of headcount major) for the current and preceding four academic years and undergraduate and graduate degrees conferred during each of those academic years. The "current" year means the academic year (F2015- S2016). FT--full time; PT--part time

Students designated “U4” have completed 85 or more credits. Not all of these students will have completed the program requirements for graduation, due to transfer status, the choice to complete one or more minors (or even a second major), having changed majors at some point in their academic careers, or other reasons. Hence the total number graduating each year will be significantly fewer that the total of students with U4 status in that year.
