Technical Electives

The degree plan includes a set of four courses that comprise the technical area option, two of which must be in chemical engineering, a chemistry elective that includes a laboratory, and an advanced mathematics, physics, chemistry or biology elective. These electives total 19 credit hours.

The technical courses should be selected in consultation with a faculty advisor and must be approved by the undergraduate advisor if they do not appear on the lists published in the Course Catalog. The courses listed do not constitute an exclusive list but illustrate the types of courses that are generally suitable.
