Introduction to Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering is:

• an integration of all the sciences

• a combination of some science courses

• a combination of science and arts

• purely engineering with no science

The human body can be considered to be:

• a chemical reaction

• an engineering design

• a physical machine

• an artistic creation

Chemical engineers take experiments from lab and

• reproduce them in their own labs

• scale them for real-world applications

• try to change them for their own needs

• try to use data from these experiments

The society that is mentioned in the video and there is a UOB chapter for it as well is:

• SPE

• ISA

• AICHE

• ASME

Chemical Engineers are essentially

• memorizing information

• writing reports

• doing financial analysis

• solving problems

Chemical Engineering is involved in all of these except

• Food Science

• Medicine

• Environment

• Culture

Chemical Engineering students in the BSc

• are not required to do any research

• are involved in latest research

• have to write only scientific essays

• are required to produce something totally new

The Capstone Project course

• is an application of all the courses taken by the students

• is a project course for one specific course

• requires students to write lab reports

• is taken by students in the first year

Chemical engineers can also work to see how food is metabolized in the human body.

• No. That is studied by biologists.

• Yes, they can study that as well.

• They should not study that because it is away from their field.

The "co-op program" mentioned in the video is referring to:

• lab work

• working in other universities

• industrial training

• research with other students
