CHEN 3401W |
Junior Chemical Engineering Lab |
This is the old course CHEN 4401W. It needed to
show up as a new course so that the old and new courses could be given in the
same semester as part of the transition plan. New
Course Proposal This proposal also corrects some issues with prerequisites
in the original plan. See below from Raul Caretta
Chemical Engineering post-2011 Course Plan In the pre-2011
course plan, the course CHEN 4401W was taught in the Fall semester and was a
prerequisite for the Spring semester CHEN 4402W. Both courses were part of the
senior year curriculum. Among others, CHEN 4401W had CHEM 4121 and CHEM 2311 as
a prerequisites and consequently all those courses were prerequisites of CHEN
4402W.
In the new post-2011 course plan, CHEN 4402W is called
CHEN 3401W and is taught in the Spring semester of the junior year. This
course, CHEN 3401W, should have CHEM 4121 (now called CHEM 2121) and CHEM 2311
as prerequisites (and it currently does NOT have them, it has CHEM 2121
concurrent).
I am requesting to make CHEM 4121 (now called CHEM 2121)
and CHEM 2311 as prerequisites of CHEN 3401W. All other prerequisites listed in
the catalog for CHEN 3401W are correct. |
