Ne öğreneceğim?
The chemical engineering program offers students a broad education built on fundamentals in science, mathematics, and engineering, which are then applied to contemporary problems using modern tools, such as computational software and computer-aided design. Chemical engineers have traditionally been employed in chemical, petrochemical, agricultural chemical, pulp and paper, plastics, cosmetics, and textiles industries and in consulting and design firms. Today, chemical engineers also play an integral role in bioprocesses and biomedicine, Big Data and artificial intelligence, sustainability and energy, and study of advanced materials, including nanotechnology. For example, chemical engineers are creating new materials needed for space exploration, alternative energy sources, and faster, self-powered computer chips. In biotechnology and biomedicine, chemical engineers are working to understand human diseases, developing new therapies and drug delivery systems, and producing new medicines through cell culture techniques. Chemical engineers employ nanotechnology to revolutionize sensors, security systems, and medical diagnostics and treatments. In addition to creating important products, chemical engineers are also involved in protecting our environment by exploring ways to reduce acid rain and smog to recycle and reduce wastes to develop new sources of environmentally clean energy and to design inherently safe, efficient, and ''green'' processes. The role of a chemical engineer is to develop new products and to design processes while reducing costs, increasing production, and improving the quality and safety of new products. The degree also serves as a springboard to advanced study in chemical engineering or postgraduate pathways including law school, business school, or medical/health professions school.
