BSChE Requirements

Engineering Breadth and Focus Area Options

To complete their technical education, Rice students seeking a B.S. degree in chemical engineering take course electives in at least two other engineering disciplines to satisfy a "breadth" requirement.

Or, they can use their electives to create a focus (or concentration) area in one of the following four disciplines:

• biotechnology/bioengineering,
  
  
• computational engineering,
  
  
• environmental engineering,
  
  
• materials science and engineering.

Computer Programming: MATLAB and FORTRAN are taught in CENG 303 and 305. Computer programming is vertically integrated throughout the chemical engineering curriculum.
