CHEMICAL ENGINEERING UNDERGRADUATE COURSES The purpose of this

CHEMICAL ENGINEERING UNDERGRADUATE COURSES The purpose of this document is to provide a brief overview of the Chemical Engineering undergraduate courses at the University of Waterloo, especially those courses that will be connected to the Longitudinal Case Study (LCS). Please note that specific course requirements may differ from year to year, and that curriculum links are subject to change. This is only to be used as a general guide, to help you see where your project is headed in future terms. Refer to individual course syllabi for up-to-date expectations.
