Chemical engineers develop problem-solving skills, with a strong foundation in science, engineering, and mathematics that touch every aspect of our lives–from smaller, faster computer chips to ...

Many prospective students struggle to tell the various engineering disciplines apart. With so much overlap and interdisciplinary work happening within each branch, the definitions for each profession ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...

When I was in high school, I loved my advanced science classes. Sometimes the material was tough — combustion reaction analysis takes time to understand — but I didn’t mind doing the work that it ...

Systems Thinking is a way of looking at the way things are made in the world and understanding how processes influence one another in a larger system. Linear thinking is a narrow way of looking at the ...

What if a soft material could move on its own, guided not by electronics or motors, but by the kind of rudimentary chemical signaling that powers the simplest organisms? Researchers at the University ...

Some industrial processes used to create useful chemicals require heat, but heating methods are often inefficient, partly because they heat a greater volume of space than they really need to.

The chemical engineering PhD program from Drexel Engineering will engage you in learning and research at the forefront of chemical engineering, biochemical engineering, energy, environment, and ...

Chemical engineers use innovative ideas to transform raw materials into high-value products or processes, with a focus on the roles of chemistry and chemical properties. These engineers apply the ...
