It's a small school, it's worth checking out.
It's currently the school I'm attending for Chem.E. and they're proficient and are ranked as high as well as higher than some schools such as MIT, polymers being one of such the cases of where they are ranked either 1st or 2nd.
Cyclovenom said:Well, I did my undergrad in Civil Engineering at another university. Currently, I am doing my grad studies there at the Civil Eng Department. The university so far is great. Lots of smart people and well prepared faculty. They are nice and willing to help you learn.

The top chemical engineering undergraduate schools are typically determined by rankings from reputable sources such as U.S. News & World Report, Forbes, and the QS World University Rankings. Some of the top schools include the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of California-Berkeley, and the University of Texas at Austin.
Some important factors to consider when choosing a chemical engineering undergraduate school include the program's curriculum, faculty expertise, research opportunities, location, internship and co-op options, and job placement rates. It's also important to consider the cost and financial aid options available.
Yes, many chemical engineering undergraduate programs offer specialized areas of study such as biochemical engineering, materials science and engineering, environmental engineering, and process systems engineering. It's important to research the specific programs offered by each school to find one that aligns with your interests and career goals.
Yes, a strong foundation in science and math is essential for success in a chemical engineering undergraduate program. Courses in chemistry, physics, biology, and calculus are typically required for admission, and strong critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills are necessary for coursework and research in the field.
It is possible to transfer from a different major to a chemical engineering undergraduate program, but it may depend on the specific requirements and availability of courses at the school you are transferring to. It's important to speak with an academic advisor at the school to determine the feasibility of transferring and to plan your coursework accordingly.
