Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering receive comprehensive training in essential subjects like fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, and chemical process dynamics and control. This broad chemical engineering curriculum equips graduates to develop and produce diverse products at industrial scales. Our undergraduate chemical engineering students work with materials ranging from pharmaceuticals and paper to petrochemicals and polymers.
The Colorado School of Mines maintains a forward-looking approach, preparing graduates for careers in emerging fields like renewable energy, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. During their studies, Mines students can specialize in process engineering (concentrating on large-scale industrial processes for chemicals and fuels), biological engineering (applying engineering concepts to biological systems for pharmaceutical and bioenergy applications), or honors research (enhancing qualifications for graduate studies or research roles).
