Abstract
Four key components of a chemical engineering curriculum prepare undergraduates to be effective process designers in industry: (a) a structured approach relying on fundamentals; (b) a balance between heuristic and algorithmic approaches; (c) achievement of competency in the use of process simulators; and (d) instruction in the integration of design and control. It is argued that the components should be included in an integrated fashion, with much of the material appearing gradually during the delivery of core courses. In this paper, each of the features is discussed in detail and demonstrated for the design of a typical process.
