Constituents: Current students, alumni, employers, and faculty
The chemical engineering program educational objectives are to produce exceptional graduates who within a few years after graduation:
The student outcomes used by the chemical engineering program are those published in the ABET “Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs” document. Those outcomes are as follows:
The Chemical Engineering Program criterion as listed in the ABET "Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs" is as follows:
The curriculum must provide a thorough grounding in the basic sciences including chemistry, physics, and/or biology, with some content at an advanced level, as appropriate to the objectives of the program. The curriculum must include the engineering application of these basic sciences to the design, analysis, and control of chemical, physical, and/or biological processes, including the hazards associated with these processes.
The mission of the Department of Chemical Engineering is to provide students with high quality, accessible undergraduate and graduate chemical engineering education; to engage and empower students with skills and knowledge to thrive in professional careers; and to serve society through economic and technological development of Southeast Texas and beyond.
