The Bachelor of Science program in Chemical Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET, http://www.abet.org.

 Mission

The mission of the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Roy G. Perry College of Engineering at Prairie View A&M is to prepare engineers who are well qualified to design and operate chemical processes. The goals of the department include the fostering of professional ethics, standards, and practices; the development of conceptual and analytical skills in problem-solving; and the development of the student’s perception and creative faculties.

Program Educational Objectives

The program educational objectives of the chemical engineering program are to produce graduates whose expected accomplishments within a few years of graduation are:

  1. To achieve success in advanced studies, if they so choose, and pursue successful professional careers in new and emerging areas, as well as traditional chemical engineering areas.
  2. To attain leadership roles in professional settings in field of choice, with high levels of competence, ethics, and safety consciousness.
  3. To maintain and raise their level of engineering competence and achievement by engaging in lifelong learning.

Student Outcomes

The student outcomes that prepare graduates to attain the program educational objectives are:

  1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
  2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
  3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
  4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
  5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
  6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
