If you have successfully completed a course at CEGEP that is equivalent to CHEM 212 or CHEM 234, you may obtain transfer credits for either or both courses by passing the McGill Science Placement Exam for the course(s). For the Department of Chemical Engineering, core courses include all required courses (departmental and non-departmental) as well as technical complementary courses. Students must obtain a grade of C or better in all core courses. Those concerned should discuss this with their adviser. (Chemical) program in two and a half years.

In some cases, students from university science disciplines have sufficient credits to complete the requirements for the B.Eng. Problem-solving, experimenting, planning, and communication skills are emphasized in courses throughout the core curriculum.Ĭertain students who take advantage of Summer session courses can complete the departmental program in three calendar years. The core curriculum concludes with process design courses taught by practising design engineers.

Courses on the technical operations and economics of the process industries are added to this foundation. Those with an interest in the fourth fundamental science, biology, will find several courses in the chemical engineering curriculum that integrate aspects of the biological sciences relevant to process industries such as food processing, fermentation, biomedical, and water pollution control.

Application of these three fundamental sciences is basic to a quantitative understanding of the process industries. The discipline of chemical engineering is distinctive in being based equally on physics, mathematics, and chemistry.
