To provide technical diversity, five additional elective courses in areas of the student's choice are required. These courses may be additional elective chemical engineering courses or technical courses given by other departments. The engineering science course and the two advanced chemistry courses mentioned earlier will count toward these five technical electives. These options are described in detail below. Special Programs and Options.
Students simply elect as few or as many courses in the cognate field as they desire.
While some students may concentrate all their electives in a single field, others may prefer to divide their time between two tracks, for example, chemistry and the biological sciences, or physics and mathematics. The following listing suggests the many tracks available. Elective courses in mathematics, modeling, and applications. Elective courses in chemical engineering, molecular biology, and chemistry. Elective courses in decision theory, engineering administration, and economics.
