The Chemical Engineering Practice is our “traditional” curriculum. Also note that ALL three Chemical Engineering concentrations require all core chemical engineering courses and will allow you to choose a career path in industry (or otherwise). This is important to recognize for the situations where you might begin your study toward a particular career path

Another question you are probably asking is what is the difference between a chemist and a chemical engineer. The difference is the chemical engineer will design the process using the reaction the chemist found and make the product in a profitable way. For example, a chemist discovers that if he mixes two reactants at a high temperature, he will obtain a more valuable product. The company wants to invent a process to make this product using this reaction. From here on is the engineering part of the problem. These following considerations must be used:
