Chemical and Biological Engineering

The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Applied Science in Chemical Engineering and to the Bachelor of Applied Science in Chemical and Biological Engineering. Interested students should apply for the Chemical Engineering or Chemical and Biological Engineering program after completing first year engineering, or equivalent if applying from another institution. Prospective students should be aware that the number of available spaces in either of the programs of study may be limited.

Without the successful completion of WRDS_V 150 or equivalent (ENGL_V 100, 110, 111 or 112) prior to entry, the program may require an extra year for completion. First year English is a pre-requisite of CHBE_V 201 (Integrated Technical Communications). Therefore, prospective students are advised to complete WRDS_V 150 or equivalent (ENGL_V 100, 110, 111 or 112) prior to September 1st.

The optional cooperative (Co-op) education experiential learning placements is a valuable aspect of the Bachelor of Applied Science in the Chemical Engineering and the Chemical and Biological Engineering programs. Students are highly encouraged to take advantage of this program. Participating students will typically complete five 4-month experiential learning placements coordinated through the Applied Science Co-op Program. Work terms can take place during the Winter or Summer terms. https://vancouver.calendar.ubc.ca/faculties-colleges-and-schools/faculty-applied-science/co-operative-education-program
