A student majoring in chemical engineering may not register for upper-division CHE courses after accumulating more than four grades of D or F in UI mathematics, science, or engineering courses. 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 used to satisfy curricular requirements.

A GPA in CHE designated courses of at least 2.0 is required to graduate

1. The student will apply aspects of engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
2. The student will identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
3. The student will develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
4. The student will communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
