The Department has established the following two graduate courses as required courses for the Master of Science and Doctoral degrees:
Experimental Design and Error Analysis (Chemical Engineering 701)
Advanced Mathematical Methods in Engineering (Chemical Engineering 703)
Regardless of their specialization, all Master of Science students must take at least one of these two required courses while all doctoral students must take both required courses.
In addition, core courses have been established forthe following specializations:
- Chemical Engineering specialization: Chemical Engineering 613, 623, 625, 631 and 633
- Petroleum Engineering specialization: Chemical Engineering621, 629, 647, 657 and 677
- Biomedical Engineering Specialization: Chemical Engineering613, 623, 625, 631 and 633
All Master of Science students in the Chemical Engineering and Petroleum Engineering specializations must complete at least one of the core courses of their specialization and all doctoral students must complete at least two of the core courses of their specialization. Requirements for other specializations are listed under the corresponding sections.
All Master of Science and Doctoral students (Chemical, Petroleum, and Energy & Environment specializations) are required to register and participate in the Research Seminar course (Chemical Engineering 601) for each of the first two terms of their degree program. Each student (Chemical, Petroleum, and Energy & Environment specializations) must also present one research seminar in Chemical Engineering 601.
All Master of Science and Doctoral students (Biomedical Engineering specialization) are required to register and participate in the Research Seminar course (Chemical Engineering 601) in one Fall Term and the Biomedical Engineering equivalent (Biomedical Engineering 607) in one Winter Term usually during the first year of their degree program. Each student (Biomedical Engineering specialization) must present one research seminar in Biomedical Engineering 607.
For more details, students must refer to the guidelines for the Research Seminar course. Requirements for other specializations are listed under the corresponding sections.
