Description of Major
Chemical engineering encompasses the development, application, and operation of processes in which chemical, biological, and/or physical changes of material are involved. The work of the chemical engineer is to analyze, develop, design, control, construct, and/or supervise chemical processes in research and development, pilot-scale operations, and industrial production. The undergraduate curriculum emphasizes the application of experimental and computer analysis to classical chemical engineering principles. This includes laboratory instruction in modern, state-of-the-art facilities in the transport phenomena, unit operations, and process control laboratories. Students are instructed in and utilize state-of-the-art computational programs such as Aspen. MATLAB, and COMSOL Multiphysics. In order to meet students interests in chemical engineering and related fields, elective courses are available in bioengineering, polymer engineering, materials engineering, electrochemical engineering, environmental engineering, and biomedical engineering. The major in Chemical-Materials Engineering builds upon the core classical chemical engineering principles developed initially for the original major in Chemical Engineering. Consult an advisor for specific requirements for the two major options.

ABET
The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. (ABET) requires that all students graduating from an ABET-accredited program meet certain requirements. Completion of the A.A. degree will not meet these requirements. Prospective majors should select courses after consulting an advisor.

About this course

Prerequisite Coursework
Students must complete the following prerequisites required for admission in preparation for the upper division major. Students are encouraged to complete these in the freshman and sophomore years. All may also apply to other requirements.

The State of Florida has identified common program prerequisites for this university degree program. Specific prerequisites are required for admission into the upper-division program and must be completed by the student at either:
a) a state college or community college in Florida,
b) a state university in Florida, or
c) FSU or FAMU prior to being admitted to this program.

Students may be admitted into the University without completing the prerequisites but may not be formally admitted into the program until completion of these prerequisites.

The following lists the common program prerequisites, or their substitutions, necessary for admission into this upper-division degree program. This program will be operated using the existing common program prerequisites:

1. MAC X311, MAC X312, and MAC X313 or MAC X28l, MAC X282, and MAC X283
2. MAPX302
3. CHM X045/X045L, or CHM X045C, or CHS X440/X440L, or CHM X095/X095L
4. CHM X046/X046L, or CHM X046C, or CHM X096/X096L
5. PHY X048/X048L or PHY X048C, or PHY X043 and PHY X048L
6. PHY X049/X049L or PHY X049C, or PHY X044 and PHY X049L

*PHY X064L may substitute for PHYX048L and PHY X049L

Notes:
1. The Department requires ECH 3301 Process Analysis and Design and will only accept MAP X302 or MAP X305 for transfer students.
2. The Department recommends (but does not require) that students take the following courses at a community college or a state college before transferring to this upper-division program:
• BSC X010 or BSC X044
• CHM 2210 or CHMX217
• CHM 2211

Completion of these courses may be satisfied as graduation requirements in the upper division portion of the major.
.
Note: State-wide common prerequisites are always under review

Course programme

Requirements
Pre-Engineering Program Requirements:
All students are placed in a Pre-Major Engineering code until all of the prerequisites have been completed. Students must earn a grade of "C minus" or better on the first attempt of the courses designated in our Pre-Engineering curriculum (Calculus I, Calculus II, General Chemistry I, First Year Engineering Lab) at any institution attended. One repeated attempt out of all pre-engineering courses is permitted.

Requirements for Progression to the Upper-Division:
To be admitted, students must complete at least 52 hours of credit with an FSU GPA of a 2.00, including at least one-half of the required hours in the General Education program, including all of the Area I English and math. In addition, the following requirements must be met: a grade of "C minus" or better in MAC2311. Students must not be in violation of the pre-engineering program requirements.

Transfer Requirements:
Students wishing to transfer into the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering must meet the following criteria:

• Must earn a grade of "C minus" or better on the first attempt of the courses designated in the Pre-Engineering curriculum (Calculus I, Calculus II, General Chemistry I, First Year Engineering Lab) at any institution attended. One repeated attempt out of all pre-engineering courses is permitted.

• Transfer students who have one repeated attempt in the pre-engineering courses, must have already completed all pre-engineering courses (excluding First Year Engineering Lab).

• Transfer students who will earn an AA or have more than 60 hours of transfer credit prior to enrollment at the College must have completed at least Calculus I. It is strongly preferred that AA transfer students have the majority of the pre-engineering courses completed before arriving (excluding First Year Engineering Lab).

Major Program of Studies at FSU: (107 hours)
The prepared, motivated student with proper high school preparation can complete a Chemical Engineering degree in four to five years by taking a course load averaging 15-18 hours each semester supplemented by taking courses during summer terms. Some students may require additional terms to complete the program. A student with superior training may gain advanced placement through programs for acceleration (credit by exam, high school dual-enrollment). Students may choose to specialize in any of the two majors through the selection of Advanced Chemistry and Chemical Engineering electives. Both majors require the same number of credit hours.
