Chemical Engineering Option (28-32 hours)

Total: 131-135 hours

Chemical Engineering Options

Students seeking the B.S.Ch.E. degree must complete one of the following degree options:

General Option  (28-29 hours)

Pre-med Option  (31-32 hours)

Notes:

*Some students will complete a modified series of courses. See Special Requirements .

**Selections are limited to courses that qualify as humanities or social sciences electives as defined by ABET accreditation and the Tulsa curriculum. These courses must demonstrate depth of study in at least one area rather than be simply a series of introductory courses (i.e., two of the courses must have the same departmental designation).

For calculating grade point averages, major courses shall be: ES 3003 , ES 3053 , and ES 3073 , and all chemical engineering courses. A chemical engineering student must earn a grade point average of 2.0 or higher in the major and overall in order to receive a degree in chemical engineering. Foundation courses in chemical engineering include MATH 2014 , MATH 2024 , CHEM 1013 , CHEM 1023 , and PHYS 2053 . Refer to the table for specific GPA requirements .
