椅子:博士. 托马斯·何

Chemical and biomolecular engineering is the profession in which a knowledge of mathematics, 化学, and other natural 科学s gained by study, 经验, and practice is applied with judgment to develop 经济 ways of using materials and energy for the benefit of mankind. The chemical engineer enters into almost every modern industry. 从石油到合成橡胶, 从半导体到医药, the chemical engineer engages in design, 研究, 发展, 生产, 销售, 和管理. Among the fields in which the chemical engineer is of prime importance are petroleum, 石油化工产品, 金属, 塑料, 油漆, 药品和食品, 纸, 玻璃, 染料, 合成纤维, 还有很多其他的.

丹·F. Smith Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering was among the first at 十大电子游艺网站排行 to seek accreditation for its undergraduate program. The bachelor's program in chemical engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.
