Our chemical engineering curriculum equips students with robust problem-solving abilities and a solid foundation in engineering, science, and mathematics. They gain expertise in designing experiments, analyzing results, and drawing meaningful conclusions. The program emphasizes analytical reasoning, empowering graduates to tackle complex engineering problems in the industry. Those with a strong aptitude for chemistry, mathematics, and analytical thinking often excel in chemical engineering. At U-M, chemical engineering undergraduates can personalize their education through diverse academic pathways. Popular options include minors like International Studies, Interdisciplinary Design, Entrepreneurship, or Sustainable Engineering. Some opt for dual degrees, pairing chemical engineering with fields like Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, or disciplines from the College of Literature, Science & Arts such as Chemistry. U-M's interdisciplinary strength allows students to benefit from an exceptional, cross-departmental learning experience. Our ABET-accredited Chemical Engineering Bachelor of Science program qualifies graduates for professional engineering licensure. Seniors can initiate the licensing process if they choose to pursue it. Thanks to ABET accreditation and global agreements, U-M chemical engineering degrees hold recognition throughout the United States and internationally.
