Chemical Engineering: Review of Enabling Sciences through Problem Solving (Canvas net)

Offered by University of Alabama in Huntsville - UAH,
Chemical Engineering: Review of Enabling Sciences through Problem Solving (Canvas net)

By introducing problems that chemical engineers are asked to solve and exploring the reasons why the enabling sciences are required to solve them, participants will gain a better understanding of the underlying disciplines supporting the work in chemical engineering.

A junior or senior standing in high school is the only recommended prerequisite for this class. Although chemical engineering is the focus, this course will benefit anyone considering engineering as a course of study in the future. There is no cost for this course, and students will be provided with all required content.
Starts March 23, 2015
