Preparing chemical engineering students for careers in emerging technologies, such as bioengineerin g and pharmaceutical engineering, is essential in to day’s competitive market. To meet the in dustry (and student) demand for training in bio-focused engineering, many schools offer specialized curricula that concentrate on the interface between biology and engineering, or offer elective courses at the senior or graduate level. However, integration of biology and chemical engineering at the lower levels and in core courses is often difficult in curricula that are already filled to capacity. The chemical engineering curriculum at Ro wan University has been revised to include a Biological Systems & Applications course designed to introduce stu dents to a variety of biological principles that are relevant to chemical engineering. Additionally,
