Objectives
The undergraduate program in Chemical Engineering at Dalhousie University is designed to provide the student with a broad background in the underlying sciences of Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics. This is then combined with a detailed knowledge of engineering principles and practice, along with a good appreciation of social, environmental and economic factors. Thorough understanding of the principles is accomplished through lecture, tutorial and laboratory activities, and extensive use is made of the departmental Computing Facilities.
-
Practical experience
Laboratory involvement is considered an important component of the student's education. Emphasis in the laboratory is placed on Teamwork and on the development of problem-solving skills. The Department stresses the preparation of students for independent work and the development of interpersonal skills necessary for professional engineers.
