内容简介:
【简介】 The Department of Chemical Engineering at Oregon State University is one of the oldest and most respected chemical engineering departments in the western United States. It is the only chemical engineering department in Oregon. The department's roots trace back to 1917 and the undergraduate program in Chemical Engineering is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC). The department currently has eight full-time faculty members, two endowed professors from industry, three emeritus professors, and one adjunct professor. These faculty members pursue a variety of research and teaching activities.
The chemical engineering curriculum provides students with a background of fundamental knowledge that prepares them for responsible positions in research and development, design, technical service, plant operation, technical sales, and management in a wide variety of government, non-profit and industrial organizations. It places major emphasis on mathematics, chemistry and engineering sciences in addition to courses in design and analysis. Traditionally, the department has achieved prominence in research areas fundamental to chemical engineering, including mass transfer, heat transfer, chemical reaction engineering, fluidization, and thermodynamics. In recent years excellence is being established in several emerging areas, including biochemical engineering, high-temperature ceramic materials, thin film technologies, environmental control, waste minimization, polymer processing and rheology, and computerized process control.
