Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Concentration

Chemical and biochemical engineering (CBE) is offered as a concentration within the professional science master's program described under Business and Science 137. The goal of the master of business and science (M.B.S.) degree with a concentration in CBE is to educate students in the essential skills relevant to the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnological industries. The CBE concentration requirements include: one advanced engineering mathematics course, one CBE core course, one life science course, one materials course, and one pharmaceutical engineering course. The remaining courses can be taken as electives.
