  • 10 10: Introduction to Chemical Engineering

    4.00 Credits
    Massachusetts Institute of Technology

    The diverse applications of chemical engineering are explored through example problems. Solutions require application of fundamental concepts of mass and energy conservation to batch and continuous systems, involving chemical and biological processes. Computer skills and the elements of engineering design are taught in the context of these example problems. The objective is to acquaint the student with the field of chemical engineering and to enable use of computer methods to solve chemical and biological engineering problems. Prerequisite:    Prereq: Chemistry (GIR), Physics I (GIR), Calculus I (GIR)
