Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Chemical Engineering - Biological Track] From Ohio University

The Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering offers an accredited B.S. in chemical engineering.  The undergraduate program’s objectives are for graduates to gain a strong foundation in chemical engineering theory and practice, have communication and interpersonal skills needed to succeed in a professional environment, and have the ability to become scholars and professionals dedicated to the betterment of themselves and society.

The undergraduate study begins with foundation courses in chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics.  Individual and team projects are introduced early and continue throughout the curriculum, providing professional development through teamwork and communication skills and the ability to solve problems beyond the textbook. Students progress from basic analysis of commercial chemical and biological processes to operating pilot-scale manufacturing equipment and designing a complete manufacturing process.

In addition to their core requirements, students on the Chemical Engineering - Materials Track select a majority of their technical elective courses from engineering and science courses related to biological systems.
