Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering - Fall 2018-2019

Below is a checklist of courses required for completion of the BS degree in Chemical Engineering.   A total of 127 hours is required for the degree including completion of the KU CORE requirements. 

• Students that transfer into the program do not go back and take C&PE 111. However, they need to make up the hours with 1 additional hour of engineering elective and 1 additional hour of MSEHS (Math, Science, Engineering, Humanities, or Social Science).
• Students who are exempt from ENGL 101 do not need to make up the hours with another course.
• CHEM 130 and 135 are acceptable substitutes for CHEM 170 and 175.
• HSES and other activity courses do not count for hours towards graduation.
• Students will satisfy KU CORE Goal 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, 3N, 5, and 6 with completion of the Math, Science, Communication, English, and Engineering courses required for the degree. Students must select approved courses to satisfy the Goal 3H, 3S, 4.1, 4.2 requirements. Students will not graduate without meeting the requirements for the KU CORE.
• Students who fulfill Goal 4.2 by international status or an experience need to make up the 3 hours with 3 hours of MSEHS (Math, Science, Engineering, Humanities, or Social Science).
• Students planning on completing an emphasis (Biomedical, Environmental, Materials Science, Petroleum, or Premedical) may have specific advanced science and engineering elective courses that are required for completion of the emphasis. Please see the emphasis pages for a detailed description of the specific requirements.
