Abstract

Over the past 15 years, we have made a series of innovations and systematic improvements to the lab courses offered in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering (CHBE) at The University of British Columbia (UBC). Prior to 2003, CHBE teaching laboratories used a more traditional laboratory course model where students performed "cookbook" experiments and individually wrote formal lab reports. Redevelopment began with our second-year course and improvements from the second-year course were progressively added to senior years. The integrated lab sequence now culminates in a capstone problem-based learning laboratory experience. We will present our optimized laboratory sequence model that is currently used in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th year CHBE program at UBC.
