CHEMICAL ENGINEERING PROGRAMWhat is chemical engineering?Chemical engineering is based on the sciences of chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics. The curriculumat Clemson emphasizes a broad range of fundamental principles in science and engineering as well ascommunication skills and humanities and social sciences. As a result, our graduates are sought avidly byindustries in many areas of technology such as energy and fuels, commodity chemicals, specialty chemicals,pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, electronic and photonic devices, food and consumer goods, advanced materials,pulp and paper, and design engineering. Chemical engineers contribute to the prevention and remediation ofenvironmental pollution, and many are involved in the application of engineering technology to the solution ofmedical and health-related problems.Intended Student Outcomes: What will I learn in the Clemson BS ChE Program?The BS program in chemical engineering at Clemson consists of a blend of classroom instruction, laboratorypractice, and project work designed to prepare graduates to accomplish our Program Educational Objectives.The program is designed to ensure that students achieve the following Student Outcomes by the time theygraduate.(1) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles ofengineering, science, and mathematics(2) an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factorsan ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiencesan ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informedjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental,and societal contextsan ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create acollaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectivesan ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and useengineering judgment to draw conclusionsan ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategiesProgram Educational Objectives: What can I achieve as a result of my Clemson education?The undergraduate program in Chemical Engineering at Clemson University aims to produce graduates whowithin 3 to 5 years of graduation will Practice chemical engineering in a professional, ethical, and safe manner; and cultivate crossdisciplinary collaborations to solve contemporary challenges. Provide leadership in industry, government organizations, or higher education. Pursue life-long learning in chemical engineering, other engineering or science disciplines, medicine,law, or business.Because of the broad, fundamental background, chemical engineering graduates are prepared for a wide varietyof career paths. They can work in the operation and management of production facilities, conceptualengineering and design of new plants, technical marketing and sales, basic research and development, and avariety of other activities. The careers of many Clemson chemical engineers have led to top executive positionsin established companies or to entrepreneurship in their own companies.By the judicious choice of electives, a Clemson chemical engineering student can tailor his/her education to aspecific career objective. Many students use their electives and an Emphasis Area or Minor to prepare for atechnical specialization such as energy, environmental control, or polymer processing. Others gravitate towardan emphasis in business. Some students prepare for entry into a graduate program in engineering or foradvanced professional study in medicine, dentistry, or law.5

Nine credit hours devoted to completion of an emphasis area or approved minor is required. Emphasisareas are these: Applied Engineering, Mathematics & Science; Biomolecular Science & Engineering; Polymeric Materials; EnergyStudies; Environmental Engineering & Science; Business Management. Emphasis area courses may not be used to satisfy otherCHE degree requirements.Note: No student may exceed two attempts, including a W, to complete successfully any CHE course.6
Emphasis Areas and the Biomolecular ConcentrationThe Chemical Engineering curriculum includes Emphasis Areas to allow students flexibility in selecting coursesand planning their future careers. Students in this curriculum must declare an area of interest and plan asequence of Emphasis Area courses in the fall semester of the sophomore year. These initial plans can bemodified later in consultation with an academic advisor. Before graduation each student in the regular ChemicalEngineering curriculum must complete 9 credit hours of approved courses in one of the following EmphasisAreas: Applied Engineering, Mathematics, and ScienceBiomolecular Science and EngineeringBusiness ManagementEnergy StudiesEnvironmental Engineering and SciencePolymeric MaterialsAlternatively, students in the Chemical Engineering curriculum may apply the 9-hours set aside for completionof an Emphasis Area toward the completion of any minor or second major offered by Clemson, except theChemistry Minor and the Cluster Minor. (You can earn a minor in Chemistry if you wish, but you will alsohave to complete an Emphasis Area.) Minor requirements are set by the department granting the minor. Detailsof each minor are available in the Undergraduate Announcements. Students who enter the program havingalready earned a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution may apply 9 approved hours of requiredjunior or senior-level courses from the previous degree program to satisfy the Emphasis Area requirement.Students also have the option of earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering with aBiomolecular Concentration. The concentration is a modified version of the BSChE curriculum that devotes 22credit hours of work to a stronger emphasis in biomolecular engineering and science.REQUIREMENTS FOR EMPHASIS AREASImportant note to students: It is your responsibility to insure that the Emphasis Area courses you select willbe offered when you want to take them and that you will meet the prerequisites and other registration criteriastipulated by the offering department. Course schedules change frequently, and many of the Emphasis Areacourses have prerequisites that are not part of the ChE curriculum.The Undergraduate Announcements lists prerequisites for every course offered by Clemson. For yourconvenience, a list of prerequisites for Emphasis Area courses are also provided below, following the courselistings.This list is not guaranteed to be complete or up to date. In some cases a department may waive a prerequisite oraccept a reasonable alternative for a well-qualified student. If you believe that you have reasonable alternativesto the listed prerequisites, then you should request a prerequisite waiver from the offering department. In othercases, even though you have the prerequisites, you may be unable to get into a course due to other registrationrestrictions such as space limitations, majors who are given priority, or the course is not offered on a regularschedule.7
The department that offers a particular course is the only reliable source that can tell you when a coursewill be offered and what requirements must be met prior to registration. Plan ahead and contact the offeringdepartment if there is any doubt about the availability of courses you select. It is highly advisable to plan aheadand coordinate the emphasis area prerequisites with your General Education requirements. For example, if youare considering the Business Management Emphasis Area, it would be advisable to take ECON 2110 for yourSocial Science requirement.Note also that not all courses listed in the Emphasis Areas have 3 credits. Therefore, depending on the set ofcourses you select, you might need to complete more than 3 courses to satisfy the 9 credit hour minimum.a) Applied Engineering, Mathematics, and Science Emphasis AreaStudents must complete 1-3 engineering course(s), 0-2 mathematics course(s), and 0-1 science course from thelists below.
