Undergraduate Advising Chemical Engineering (CHE)
School of Chemical, Biological, andEnvironmental Engineering (CBEE)College of Engineeringcbee.oregonstate.eduUndergraduate Advising GuideChemical Engineering (CHE)Revised 9/16/20This advising guide is intended to give an overview of the requirements for the B.S. Chemical Engineering degreein the School of Chemical, Biological, and Environmental Engineering (CBEE) at OSU. This major requires 192credits for graduation and generally takes 4‐5 years to complete.Chemical engineering is the study and modeling of systems where heat and fluid flow are coupled with chemicalreactions. Examples of systems are the human body, ground water, the atmosphere, the ocean, and chemicalreactors. Natural systems are measured and modeled in order to understand present and future behavior. Man‐made systems are specifically designed to convert raw materials into more useful products.Making useful products requires using mathematics and science to plan, develop, design, operate, and improveprocesses. Some processes are micro‐scale, as in computer chip manufacturing, and some are large‐scale, as inpetroleum refining. Typical products from these processes include computer chips, solar cells, batteries,pharmaceuticals, plastics, synthetic fibers, composite materials, pulp and paper, and consumer products rangingfrom detergents to cosmetics. Chemical engineers find employment in large high‐tech companies,environmental consulting firms, large commodity companies and small software companies. Employmentprospects for graduates in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest are strong.General questions?

Advising Information & PoliciesAdvising AppointmentsCBEE Advisors offer a few different appointment types for current and prospective students. Current studentscan book 20 or 50‐minute advising appointments. For most students, a 20‐minute advising appointment isappropriate for routine advising, including course planning, PIN obtainment, registration questions, and careeradvising. The 50‐minute appointments are primarily recommended for students who need additional time todiscuss academic standing (academic probation or suspension), transfer course articulations, 4‐year plans, orstudy abroad course articulations.We also offer 50‐minute prospective and transfer student appointments, primarily intended for studentsinterested in one of our majors at OSU but do not yet have a student account with OSU. These appointmentscan be booked up to 72‐hours in advance. If you have transfer credits that you would like to discuss in yourappointment, we recommend you email a copy of your transcripts to the advisor you book with.Drop‐In AdvisingCBEE Advisors provide one drop‐in time on weekdays. Please check our website for current drop‐in times. Thesetimes are intended for students with quick 1‐10 minute questions. Advisors will see students on a first‐come,first‐serve basis so you may not be able to see a specific advisor.Drop‐ins may be cancelled some days to conflicting university events or meetings. Always check our website fordrop‐in announcements: ing/appointments.Late & No Show PoliciesIf you are going to be late or are going to miss a scheduled an advising appointment, the best thing you can do islet your advisor know and/or cancel your appointment. We understand that you can have things come up inyour lives that may lead to a missed appointment, and it really helps us if you can let us know when this is goingto happen.Late Policy: If you arrive to a scheduled advising appointment 5 minutes or more late, you may be asked toreschedule. If you arrive 10 minutes or more late, you must reschedule. When we reserve time for you, werequire all of that time to provide you with the best quality work possible. We understand true emergencieshappen, so please do your best to let us know if you are going to be late.No‐Show Policy: No penalty for the first time you do not come to a scheduled appointment. If you "no‐show" ona second appointment, we will not give you your PIN for registration until the final day of Phase I registration. Ifyou schedule an appointment and need to cancel, please contact your advisor.General Questions?We have a Frequently Asked Questions page sing/FAQs)where we aggregate common student questions.

Experiential Learning in CBEEIn today’s workforce, in order to get a job, it is not enough to simply get a degree. Employers expect students toparticipate in a variety of experiential learning activities to make themselves career‐ready upon graduation.We’ve outlined some of these activities below, as well as resources for planning towards your long‐term goals.Remember, it is important to start thinking about your career early and often. Also, consult our 9‐Term CareerDevelopment Checklist on the previous page for more information about the recommended activities for eachterm in your program.CBEE Canvas SiteThe CBEE Advisors and Industry Relations Coordinator have developed a Canvas Site designed to help studentsdevelop professionally and learn about the different types of opportunities they can take advantage of while atOSU. This site includes a link to a calendar of experiential learning events being offered through CBEE and OSU.It also includes tutorials on a variety of topics, as outlined below.As a CBEE student, you should be automatically added to this Canvas Site. If you are a CBEE student and do nothave access to this site, please contact Madison Webb.Workshops & SeminarsOSU, the College of Engineering, and CBEE each provide workshops, seminars, and programs to hel
