The Department of Chemical and Biological engineering has a long, successful history of providing our students with a premier educational experience. We pursue this goal through innovative pedagogy, outstanding facilities, and our world-class faculty. Ours is a community of scholars, bringing together a faculty equally adept in the laboratory and in the classroom, our incredibly talented and engaging student body, and a caring, dedicated staff. We are justifiably proud of our international reputation for excellence, and – most of all – proud of our many accomplished, successful alumni.
Investing in the Future of CBE
To help us realize and sustain our vision for a department having global impact, we rely on the generous support of our donors. Support from alumni and other friends create opportunities for students in the form of educational, research, and internship support, laboratory and infrastructure development, travel grants, invited lectures, and so much more. These gifts underwrite the investments so critical to our collective future as we educate the engineers who will address society’s most vexing problems; the innovators who build our national wealth.
