Numerical methods for Chemical Engineering analysis. Linear system solutions with emphasis on robustness, speed and conditioning of equations. Applications in finite difference solutions of linear and nonlinear parabolic and elliptic pde's. Robust methods for initial value problems and Methods of Lines solutions using finite difference discretizations. Weighted residual methods, especially collocation and finite element methods. Nonlinear equation solving by fixed-point and Newton-like methods. Continuation methods for multiple solutions.

This course introduces students to the energy needs and possible energy changes that will occur as we transform from a petroleum-based energy source to renewable energies. It will give students the tools and perspective to evaluate alternative technologies in energy utilization with emphasis on renewable/sustainable technologies.

The application of chemical engineering and biochemistry principles to the design and optimization of processes in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Topics include enzyme catalysis, metabolic engineering and regulation, fermentation, microbial growth, bioreactor design, and product recovery and purification.

An introduction to the theory and application of momentum transport in fluids. The basic theoretical equation, e.g., Navier Stokes equations and Boundary Layer analysis developed and used to flow problems, with applications to laminar and turbulent flow in the design of piping and other chemical equipment.
