Electives to total 128 credits for the degree, not counting Engl 101, Math 143, and other courses that might be required to remove deficiencies.
Students majoring in chemical engineering must earn a grade of C or better in each of the following courses before registration is permitted in upper-division chemical engineering courses: Chem 111 and 112; ChE 223; Engr 210, 320, and 335; and Math 275 and 310.
Students transferring ChE 223 or its equivalent from a university without an ABET accredited chemical engineering program must pass a test on the subject matter of this course before acceptance of the course for certification.
A passing grade (D or higher) is required in each of the following courses before registration is permitted in upper-division chemical engineering courses: ChE 123, computer science elective, Math 170 and 175, and Phys 211 and 212.
Any student majoring in chemical engineering may accumulate no more than four grades of D or F in UI mathematics, science, or engineering courses that are used to satisfy junior certification requirements. Included in this number are multiple repeats in a single class or single repeats in multiple classes. A warning will be issued in writing to students who have accumulated two grades of D or F in UI mathematics, science, or engineering courses used to satisfy curricular requirements.
An average GPA of at least 2.0 is required for all chemical engineering courses used to satisfy the curricular requirements.
