MISSION
The vision of the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering is to serve the state and
nation by becoming a leading educational and research program in chemical and biomedical
engineering. We aim to capitalize on the fundamental strengths of chemical engineering in the
study and application of multi-component, multiphase transport and reaction processes to
make innovative and creative advances to solving pressing societal problems in human health,
environment, and industry. The Department's mission statement follows:
The Mission of the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering is to provide a high
quality and modern education in the fundamental principles and practices of chemical and
biomedical engineering. The fundamental unifying theme of chemical engineering is the study
and application of multi-component, multiphase systems from the molecular to the macroscopic
scales, with particular emphasis on molecular transport processes with chemical transformation,
e.g., chemical or biochemical reactions. The biomedical engineering emphasis in the Department
builds upon this chemical engineering strength, and is focused on cellular and biochemical
transformations in natural and synthetic environments. An integral part of the education process
involves faculty and students conducting groundbreaking and innovative research in areas of
critical importance to our society. The Department seeks to prepare students for academic
and professional work through classroom and laboratory instruction and research with modern
experimental, mathematical, and computational tools.
