Chemical Engineering - Colorado School of Mines

Chemical Engineering from Colorado School of Mines is a Campus Master Chemical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. From its inception, the Chemical Engineering Department has focused on applied and fundamental research programs aimed at problems of national interest and need. As such, an active and vital research program has been, and remains, an integral part of the department's mission. Our goal is to maintain strength in areas critical to existing industries while conducting research in new areas vital to emerging technologies. Research focus has broadened over the years to include environmental research, materials science (including electronic materials, membranes, polymers and colloids), natural gas hydrates, separations technologies, theoretical and applied thermodynamics, theoretical fluid mechanics and rheology, combustion science, and computational methods and atomistic simulation. Review of our faculty pages will give prospective students more information on many of the research projects being conducted within the department, including: Polymeric and opto-electronic materials Natural gas hydrates Combustion and reaction engineering Fuels and engine research Molecular simulation Surface and interfacial engineering Master of Science The M.S. degree is designed for students with an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering and those qualified students with non-engineering degrees desiring to enter the field of chemical engineering from scientific or other engineering disciplines. The master of science program itself requires a minimum of 36 credit hours. This consists of a minimum of 19 semester hours of course work, 12 semester hours of research and successful defense of a thesis. All students must complete the four core courses: ChEN507 - Applied Mathematics in Chemical Engineering ChEN509 - Advanced Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics ChEN516 - Transport Phenomena ChEN518 - Reaction Kinetics and Catalysis View more details on Colorado School of Mines .
