• Petroleum Engineering Option
  PETE 3000 (Introduction to Petroleum Engineering, 3), PETE 4010 (Reservoir Mechanics, 3), PETE/CHE 4060 (Flow through Porous Media, 3), GEOL 4190(Petroleum Geology, 3) or approved elective.
• Chemistry - Concurrent/Double Chemistry Major (Plan-1BS)
  CHEM 4000 (Seminar, 1) + CHEM 4110 (Introduction to Inorganic Chemistry, 3) + CHEM 4100 (Inorganic Chemistry Lab, 2) + CHEM 4508 (Physical Chemistry II, 3) + CHEM 4530 (Physical Chemistry Lab, 1) + CHEM 4930 (Undergraduate Research, 2) + 3 credits of upper-division Chemistry electives. If the Advisor and Chemistry Department's Undergraduate Studies Committee approve a research plan, CHE 3900 (Undergraduate Research) can substitute for CHEM 4930.
  • Concurrent/Double Chemistry Major (Plan-1BA)
    CHEM 4110 (Introduction to Inorganic Chemistry, 3) + 6 credits of upper-division Chemistry electives including one of the following: CHEM 4100 (Inorganic Chemistry Lab, 2) , CHEM 4230 (Instrumental Methods, 4), or CHEM 4530 (Physical Chemistry Lab, 1).
  • Concurrent Chemistry Minor
    ChE curriculum automatically satisfies the Chemistry Minor requirements.
• Math - Math Minor
  MATH 2250, (Elementary Linear Algebra, 3) + MATH 2800 (Math Seminar, 2) or MATH 3800 (Putnam Seminar, 2) + programming class (for example, COSC 1010 or COSC 1030 or ES 3070) + two MATH 3000-plus electives (for example, Math 3310 and CHE 5140/MATH 5310).
• Biomaterials/Polymers Research
  CHE 3990 (Undergraduate Research, 6) + CHE 4160 (Biomedical Engineering - Transport Processes, 3) or approved elective (3) + CHE 4170 (Polymeric Materials Synthesis, 3).
• Biomedical Engineering (satisfies the premed requirements)
  MOLB 2240 (Medical Microbiology, 5) or MOLB 2210 (General Microbiology, 4) + MOLB 3610 (Principles of Biochemistry, 4) + CHE 4160 (Biomedical Engineering - Transport Processes, 3). Substitutions may be required - students should investigate premed requirements at the medical schools of their choice and meet these requirements.
• Biotechnology/Pharmaceuticals
  MOLB 3610 (Principles of Biochemistry, 4) + CHE 4160 (Biomedical Engineering - Transport Processes, 3) + other electives, for example, PHCY 4470 (Fundamentals of Pharmacology, 4) and PHCY 6110 (Medicinal and Natural Products Chemistry, 3).
• Environmental
  MOLB 2210 (General Microbiology, 4) + CE 3400 (Introduction to Environmental Engineering, 3) + CHE 4110 (Air Pollution for Chemical Engineers, 3) + CHE 4160 (Biomedical Engineering - Transport Processes, 3) or approved elective.
• International Engineering
  15 hrs of a foreign language, which replaces the 9 hrs of the University Studies Program requirements of CA (Cultural Context-Arts)/G (Global Awareness), CH (Cultural Context-Humanities)/D (Diversity in the United States) and CS (Cultural Context-Social Sciences). Hence 15 - 9 = 6 hrs are available for electives. In addition, this option requires a semester abroad at an approved Chemical Engineering program where equivalent Chemical Engineering courses can be taken.
• Self-directed
  Individual concentration area selected by student and approved by advisor.

Notes:

• The Petroleum Engineering Option is reflected on the diploma.
• The other elective-concentration examples will not be reflected on the diplomas, but may be noted on graduates' transcripts, at the College's discretion.
• The concentration areas and elective examples listed above will evolve with time; concentration areas may be modified, temporarily discontinued, dropped, or added.
