Heterogeneous catalysts play a crucial role in addressing climate change, enabling sustainable energy and chemical production while maintaining global living standards without environmental harm. At UF, our catalysis research integrates synthesis, characterization, and kinetic analysis (Hagelin-Weaver and Hibbitts), surface science investigations of molecular interactions (Weaver), and computational modeling to understand atomic-scale processes (Hibbitts).
Our graduate programs in chemical engineering - Ph.D., M.E., and M.S. - feature coursework across three fundamental domains: The foundational chemical engineering component includes three core courses covering mathematical, molecular, and continuum principles. The engineering science and systems component offers specialized studies in transport phenomena, electrochemical processes, thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, process control, separations, and heat/mass transfer. The research specialization allows students to develop expertise through focused coursework, which may include interdisciplinary subjects or advanced chemical engineering topics like colloid science, corrosion, polymer technology, materials engineering, and biochemical processes.
