The essence of chemical engineering is creating processes, materials, and devices that enhance society. Far from “extras” to fit into an already “full” curriculum, the teaching of ethics, professionalism, and environmental health & safety is essential in any B.S.Ch.E. program. These are chemical engineering topics as important as transport phenomena, as fundamental as thermodynamics, and as crucial to the professional success of our graduates as a firm grounding in material and energy balances and process design.
