Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Chemical Engineering] From University of Toledo

Bright, motivated students are attracted by UT?s engineering co-op program. We are one of only eight colleges in the U.S. that requires this practical work experience.

Chemical engineers are regarded as the most versatile of all engineers. They work in a broad range of industries from medicine to microelectronics. They combine math, chemistry, physics and biology with engineering to:

• Solve environmental problems.
• Create new sources of fuel.
• Develop solutions to water and food challenges.
• Advance health care initiatives.

bachelor's degree highlights:

• UToledo graduates get jobs.?Chemical engineering graduates have a greater than 85% job placement rate. Starting salaries can be more than $65,000 a year. All students get free assistance from the Career Development Center in the College of Engineering.

• Freshman Interest Group.?This program eases the transition from high school to college. You'll share the same schedule of classes with a small group of other engineering students.?
