ChE Graduation Requirements
|
|
The
Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering offers two options for its
Bachelor's degree program, namely, regular and cooperative (coop) students.
Both options require the ChE student to successfully complete not less than
155 credit hours with a cumulative GPA of 2.75 out of 5 or better to qualify
for attainment of the Chemical Engineering degree. Regular option students
are required to complete one summer training of 10 weeks in the industrial
field, under the supervision of a faculty member. Cooperative program
students undertake coop work for 26 weeks in lieu of the summer training and
6 credit units of departmental electives.
