Application of academically acquired skills to the practice of chemical engineering in an industrial environment: industrial economics; process synthesis and selection; flow sheet development; equipment sizing; plant layout and cost estimation. Report preparation and oral presentations. Use of commercial process simulation software. Two lecture hours, two discussion hours, and design laboratory. Prerequisite: CHE 2216 and CHE 3318 and CHE 3322 and CHE 4474 and CHE 4475.

This course provides a practical introduction to data science and machine-learning for chemical engineers. These tools, not covered in the core UG ChE curriculum, have become increasingly relevant and widely used in the chemical engineering industry. Course topics include data storage and retrieval, dimensional reduction, classification, regression algorithms, resampling and regularization, and case studies in chemical engineering. Pre-requisite: (CS 1110 or CS 1111 or CS 1112 or CS 1113 or CS 1110 place-out exam) OR (APMA 2130 or MATH 3250) OR APMA 3110 OR CHE 2216 OR equivalent

Overview of energy technologies with an emphasis on materials research and development concepts and current production. The scope of these technologies within the broader contexts of innovation and energy policy. Topics will include fossil fuels, electrochemical energy storage, fuel cells, and photovoltaics. Prerequisite (CHEM 1410 or CHEM 1610 or CHEM 1810) AND (CHE 2202 or MAE 2100 or MSE 3050).

Principles of bioseparations engineering, including specialized unit operations not normally covered in regular chemical engineering courses. Processing operations downstream of the initial manufacture of biotechnology products, including product recovery, separations, purification, and ancillary operations such as sterile processing, clean-in place and regulatory aspects. Three lecture hours. Prerequisite: CHE 3322

Applies engineering science, design methods, and system analysis to developing areas and current problems in chemical engineering. Topics are announced at registration.

Factors underlying interfacial phenomena, emphasizing thermodynamics of surfaces, structural aspects, and electrical phenomena. Application to areas such as emulsification, foaming, detergency, sedimentation, fluidization, nucleation, wetting, adhesion, flotation, and electrophoresis. Three lecture hours. Prerequisite: Instructor permission.

The scope of these technologies within the broader contexts of innovation and energy policy. Topics will include fossil fuels, electrochemical energy storage, fuel cells, and photovoltaics.

This course is a practical introduction to data science and machine learning with specific focus on chemical engineering applications. Lectures focus first on foundational programming skills, and the course continues with an overview of various techniques and algorithms used to solve real world chemical engineering problems. Substantial time is devoted to model selection and validation, and case studies in chemical engineering are explored. Prerequisites: Chemical Engineering graduate student

The course focuses on engineering's role in commercialization of vaccines and biologics. Biologics are more complex than small molecule drug products and present unique challenges in commercialization. This course includes an overview of vaccines and biologics from historical context, product, process and analytical technologies, immunology, clinical, regulatory and ethical considerations, economics, risk mitigation, and impact on human health. Prerequisites: 4th year or higher CHE or BME standing or Instructor Permission

Applies engineering science, design methods, and system analysis to developing areas and current problems in chemical engineering. Topics are announced at registration.
