Chemical Engineering (BSCheE)

University of Alabama in Huntsville

Bachelor's DegreeAcademicCIP: 14.0701

Become a contributor for free to openly demonstrate student outcomes, industry alignment & eligibility criteria.

The BSCHEE in Chemical Engineering prepares student to deal with any situation in which changes in the chemical composition or the physical state of matter (or both) are involved and, hence, finds unusually wide application. Heat and mass transfer, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, chemical reaction kinetics, and process control constitute the heart of chemical engineering. This program has two concentrations; Biotechnology or Materials.

What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: proficient (Level 3)(based on Bachelor's Degree)

  • Graduate-level curricula in advanced engineering topics — design, continuously refine, and deliver autonomously across a sustained portfolio of courses at a doctoral-granting institution.
  • Doctoral student research programs — supervise end-to-end, from dissertation proposal through defense, within a university engineering department.
  • Original research investigations — lead independently, producing peer-reviewed publications and presentations that advance knowledge in a defined engineering subdiscipline.
  • Competitive federal and industry grant proposals — author and submit as principal investigator, securing multi-year external funding for laboratory operations and graduate support.
  • Complex, non-routine engineering problems — diagnose and resolve by applying deductive and inductive reasoning across intersecting domains including physics, mathematics, and systems analysis.
  • Undergraduate and graduate course learning outcomes — evaluate through systematic assessment data, revising instructional methods to demonstrably improve student achievement.
  • Interdisciplinary engineering systems — analyze and critically evaluate using computational modeling tools, integrating findings into both research and classroom instruction.
  • Emerging technologies and engineering standards — monitor continuously through literature review and professional engagement, translating advances directly into updated course content.
  • Collaborative research partnerships — establish and manage with industry or government laboratories, coordinating student involvement and ensuring regulatory compliance.
  • Engineering design and manufacturing software ecosystems — leverage at an expert level to support research workflows and authentic project-based learning experiences.
