-
3 credits in a 500-level thermodynamics course
(e.g., 524 - Chemical Engineering, Application of Thermodynamics
528 - Colloidal Forces and Thermodynamics
597 - Polymer Thermodynamics). -
3 credits in a 500-level reaction engineering course
(e.g., 535 - Chemical Reaction Engineering
536 - Heterogeneous Catalysis). -
3 credits in a 500-level transport course
(e.g., 501 - Bioengineering Transport Phenomena
503 - Fluid Mechanics of Bioengineering Systems
544 - General Transport Phenomena
545 - Transport Phenomena I
546 - Transport Phenomena II.
Independent study courses (Ch E 496 and Ch E 596) and laboratory courses are not allowed in any of these three categories.
2. The Chair of the Graduate Program will have the responsibility of approving the specific courses that the student selects to fulfill the requirements of the minor.
