Pillars of Chemical Engineering: A Block-Scheduled Engineering Curriculum
The Department has received a three-year $1.3 million grant from the National
Science Foundation (NSF) entitled "Pillars of Chemical Engineering: A Block
Scheduled Curriculum". Led by Professor Joseph J. McCarthy, the curriculum team
-- composed of eleven faculty from Chemical as well as Industrial Engineering
-- has begun to implement a plan to reform the undergraduate Chemical
Engineering curriculum into a series of six "pillar" courses. This plan was
developed as part of NSF's program for Department-Level Reform of Engineering
Curricula (2002), and is the basis for the larger implementation project
currently underway. This web page is dedicated to tracking and disseminating
the results of the Department's on-going efforts toward implementing this plan.
Please feel free to examine our progress and direct any questions/comments to
Professor McCarthy.
