The field of chemical engineering offers advanced degree programs to prepare its students for research and technical careers in industry, academia, and government. The program strikes a balance between the science of chemical engineering and its implemention through synthesis -- a blend that provides a strong base in the discipline's fundamentals while developing in its students the skills to apply these fundamentals to significant engineering problems.
