Buddy Ratner and Less Babb are on AIChE's list of the “One Hundred Chemical Engineers of the Modern Era." More...
“Close
collaboration between students
and professors is
a mainstay of our program.”
It’s a small world, chemically speaking. On a
molecular level, our students and faculty in the UW Department of
Chemical Engineering are inventing the processes to make the raw
materials that become our medicines, fuel, surfboards and cosmetics.
From the ongoing investigation of emerging nanotechnologies to the manufacturing of consumer goods, our faculty members advance knowledge in a way that changes lives. And we do so in an innovative way: teaching through experience.
As a relatively small department, our students develop strong working relationships with their professors and gain the opportunity to do meaningful research, both with professors within the department as well as with other departments and industry partners.
The University of Washington's Bachelor of Science
degree in Chemical Engineering is accredited by the Engineering
Accreditation Commission of ABET, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050,
Baltimore, MD 21202-4021; telephone: (410)347-7700.
