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 150 or equivalent (ENGL 100, 110, 111 or 112) prior to entry, the program will require an extra year for completion. Therefore, prospective students are advised to complete WRDS 150 or equivalent (ENGL 100, 110, 111 or 112) prior to September 1st.
First year English is a pre-requisite of CHBE 201 (Integrated Technical Communications). CHBE 201 is a co-requisite of CHBE 220 (Introduction to Chemical and Biological Engineering Laboratory Practice) so students cannot register in either CHBE 201 or CHBE 220 until successful completion of First year English requirements.
