The Department of Chemical Engineering offers two specialty courses designed to introduce the most important concepts from the broad undergraduate chemical engineering curriculum. The courses serve two purposes. First, they offer professionals from other science and engineering disciplines an overview of chemical engineering principles. Environmental engineers, chemists, biochemists, mechanical engineers, agricultural engineers, and food scientists are some of the professionals who have taken these courses to strengthen and extend their technical backgrounds. Second, the courses offer a "Bridging Program" into our chemical engineering M.S. or Ph.D. degree programs, by providing students with enough background information to enable them to enter successfully and complete graduate chemical engineering degrees.

It is the responsibility of each student to be aware of and understand university regulations as published. To review the complete approved description of this program as well as academic policies and student rights and responsibilities, visit the Michigan State University Academic Programs site.
