Undergraduate Student Site

Mathematics and Basic Science Courses: Students must complete a minimum of 48 units of mathematics and basic sciences including:

Core Courses:: Mathematics 2A-B, 2D, 2J, 3D, and 2E; Chemistry 1A-B-C, 1LB-LC, 51A-B-C, 51LA-LB or H52A-B-C, H52LA-LB, 130B-C or 131A-B; Physics 7B/7LB or Physics7C/7LC; and Physics 7D and 7LD.

Engineering Topics Courses: Students must complete a minimum of 18 units of engineering design. Engineering MAE10 or CEE10 or EECS10, ENGR54, CBEMS45A-B-C, CBEMS110, CBEMS125A-B-C, CBEMS130, CBEMS135, CBEMS140A-B and CBEMS149A-B. Students select, with the approval of a faculty advisor, any additional engineering topics courses needed to satisfy school and department requirements.

Chemical Engineering Technical Electives Students select, with the approval of a faculty advisor, a minimum of 22 units of technical electives. Students may select an area of specialization and complete the associated requirements Chemical Engineering Technical Electives

Engineering and Professional Topics Courses:: ENGR190W

(The nominal Chemical Engineering program will require 192 units of courses to satisfy all university and major requirements. Students typically need at least 17 units of engineering topics from technical electives to meet school requirements. Because each student comes to UCI with a different level of preparation, the actual number of units will vary.)

Specialization in Biochemical Engineering: requires CBEMS112 or CBEMS134 and a minimum of 8 units from: CBEMS114, CBEMS124, CBEMS132, CBEMS199 or H199 (up to 4 units), CEE166, Biological Sciences 98, Biological Sciences 99, or Biological Sciences M128.

Specialization in Environmental Engineering: requires one course from: CBEMS106, CBEMS114, CBEMS116, CBEMS199 or H199 (at least 3 units), CEE161. Also requires a minimum of two courses from: CEE162, CEE163, CEE168, CEE171, CEE172, MAE110, MAE115, MAE164.

Specialization in Materials Science: requires a minimum of 12 units from: ENGR150 (requires ENGR30, not included in total), CBEMS154, CBEMS155, CBEMS157, CBEMS158, CBEMS159, CBEMS160, CBEMS162, CBEMS163, CBEMS164, CBEMS166, CBEMS167, CBEMS172, CBEMS173, CBEMS174, CBEMS175, CBEMS199 or H199 (up to 4 units).
