Academic Advising“The mission of undergraduate advising at Purdue University is to partner with students, faculty, staff,departments, and administration to empower students to develop and implement an individualized plan foracademic success, and personal and career development, while integrating learning and enrichment within theUniversity and community, as well as assisting students in understanding the nature, purpose, and value ofhigher education.” – Purdue University AdvisingIn the mission of the university, the Davidson School of Chemical Engineering undergraduates are assigned toan Academic Advisor who works with the student through many academic related matters. The Advisor is thestudent’s most utilized front-line resource throughout their education for reasons such as: Questions about the degree program, minors, concentrations, plans of study, etc.Study Abroad and how courses may apply toward degree requirementsPersonal issues interfering with academic performanceAcademic Probation/deficiency issues – poor performance in Chemical Engineering courseworkRegistration (required by the University)Questions about other resources on campusIn that capacity, students in Chemical Engineering can expect their advisor to: Assist with long- and short-term goal setting Discuss personal and academic interests Establish a positive working relationship toprovide a welcoming atmosphere at Purdue Teach how to analyze academic informationand make well-informed choices Educate on various policies and proceduresnecessary to navigate the University Inform student of their responsibilities in theadvising process Refer to campus resources/services as needed Explain degree and major requirements Discuss student’s academic performance Assist with major exploration and interpretingdegree requirements Empower student to advocate for themselves Support personal concerns and academic issues Provide a safe, inclusive environment Provide detailed knowledge and guidanceabout the standards and program(s) they advise Help navigate plan of study and requirements Inform about prerequisites for program coursesStudents are expected to fulfill the following responsibilities in the advising process: Meet Advisor minimally once per semesterand be prepared with courses and questions Review degree requirements and progress Be informed of Purdue and School of ChEacademic policies and procedures Be proactive in your education; seek help atthe first sign of concern! Accept there may be possible struggles insome classes. Work hard and communicate!

The Undergraduate Office will send a campaign email through BoilerConnect aboutprocesses setting your appointment. The exception to appointments is reserved only for those students who areoff-campus due to a Co-Op, Internship, or Study Abroad experience and done via email. However, the ChE UG-8-

Office will continue to hold all meetings virtually until further notice to accommodate both those on and offcampus.Fall 2020 Registration ExpectationsIn preparation, students must indicate their course selections on the Course Registration Form (CRF), viaScheduling Assistant. The Advisor will audit the student’s course selections against their myPurduePlan forpositive progress. At the end of the appointment, the Advisor will provide access to the registration system untilNovember 20, 2020. The student is also provided a PIN for system access during open registration dates.

BS DEGREE OUTLINEThe degree is comprised of two main fields; Chemical Engineering major and Other Departmental Courses, withthe latter entailing three sub-areas. The official degree plans for each catalog term is on the University Catalog.Degree requirements and total credits for each degree field coincide with student’s listed catalog term.Chemical Engineering Major Core 2018 FALL or PRIOR: 41-cr in the major for students admitted or entered with these catalog terms2019 FALL and AFTER: 46-cr in the major for students admitted or entered with these catalog termso Why a credit variance?

These requirements satisfy mandates as set forthby the University (UCC); School of Chemical Engineering; College of Engineering; and ABET.It is important to understand for selective requirements, the approved courses have been identified based onthe content and standard by the faculty, without regard to frequency offered. While these lists include activecourses, not all are available in a given semester, so always reference “Look Up Classes” for offerings.FYE: First-Year Engineering CoreMUST be successfully completed for T2M and CODO review. CODO’s may be admitted without ENGR13100/13200 coursework completed due to ineligibility to enroll previously as a non-FYE student.Chemical Engineering STEM Core (36-credits) The STEM Core is necessary supplemental coursework for Chemical Engineering understanding.Selective option courses must be from the provided approved linked list to satisfy that requirement.Biology Selective (3-cr)CHM 26100 (3-cr), Organic Chemistry ICHM 26300 (1-cr), Organic Chemistry Laboratory I (registered separately)CHM 26200 (3-cr), Organic Chemistry IICHM 26400 (1-cr), Organic Chemistry Laboratory II (registered separately)CHM 37000 (3-cr), Physical Chemistry- 10 -

DEGREE ENHANCEMENTSWhile the curriculum set forth is challenging and provides a strong foundation in the area of ChemicalEngineering, in preparation to be productive and an asset in the industry, many students seek additionalopportunities to integrate enhancements based on interests or career choice. Listed are ways for students toachieve enrichments within an academic setting along with, or as a substitute, to Co-Op or internship avenues.ResearchWhile research is not required for the degree, it is often pursued for selective degree requirements, and a facetof education bridging theory with application of knowledge from coursework into simulation of “real world”aspects while working closely with a faculty mentor. The School of Chemical Engineering has options forresearch and innovation allowing students to capitalize on experience and earn degree credit while expandingtheir perspective, application into products in Chemical Engineering, and enhancing their reporting andcommunication skill sets in preparation for industry and achieving the expectations of our graduates. Theseopportunities are highly recommended for those students seeking continued education of Masters and PhD.Chemical Engineering Research, InternalMany School of Chemical Engineering faculty are involved in research for discovery and impact to enhancecontributions to their classroom and labs, industry and world communities. With these objectives, often facultyhave opportunities for undergraduate students to pursue and combine their academics to application ofeveryday needs addressed by industry through experiential learning.How to Register: In a professional manner, the student approaches the faculty with whom they wish to workbased on the project or relation of their area of interest. Both parties must agree on involvement (hours/week;meeting fr

The Purdue Chemical Engineering Curriculum builds on the basic sciences and other branches of engineering. Elective programs developed by the student with his or her advisor can create options in such areas as applied chemistry, biochemical engineering, biomedical engineering, chemical reaction
