Message From The Director of Graduate Admissions


Undergraduate Program

The undergraduate program at Notre Dame is notable for its combination of a strong fundamental focus in chemical engineering courses with a broad humanities and science education provided in courses outside of chemical engineering. The science and humanities courses prepare students both for study of chemical engineering and to understand the complex scientific, social, and moral issues of the world today.

Our intention in emphasizing fundamentals is to develop students' intellect and to equip them with enduring knowledge in chemical engineering and related fields. Thus, our undergraduate chemical engineering curriculum provides students with not only a preparation for a career as chemical engineer, but its status as the ultimate "liberal science" degree prepares them for a lifetime of learning and a lifelong career in areas that may include Law, Medicine, or Business.
