Chemical Engineering

Rowan University Chemical Engineering is an enriching undergraduate and graduate program that provides students with a strong foundation in chemical engineering science and practice, and emphasizes the development of effective communication, teamwork and professional responsibility in preparation for a career in a diverse global workforce. Undergraduate students are offered an immersive learning experience that couples leading-edge instructional pedagogies with extensive hands-on engineering practice in and outside of the classroom. Graduate students are offered advanced paths at the masters and doctoral levels to develop specialized and professional skills, and to engage with our faculty in original scientific research. We prepare our students for careers in the global chemical process industry and related fields, and for advancing the chemical engineering profession as future leaders to address global issues in health, energy, environment, and sustainability. Our Chemical Engineering Program is committed to technical excellence, professional responsibility, and lifelong learning.
