The Chemical Engineering
program offers only a BS degree in Chemical Engineering. An integral component of our program,
however, is the research environment provided by the Chemical Engineering
faculty and other researchers on campus.
Presently, 40% of our graduates enter graduate school, 15% work at
government or military laboratories, 15% work in semiconductor/electronics manufacturing,
10% oil & gas industry, and 20% in traditional areas of food and chemical
processing. Over the past years,
roughly 70% of our students are from the State of New Mexico with 30% from
out-of-state, and virtually no foreign students. With these aspects of our program in mind our constituents
have been defined as follows:
1)
New Mexico Tech Chemical Engineering Students
2)
3) New Mexico
Tech Administration: represented
by VP of Academic Affairs
4)
Advisory Board: with representation from predominant regional industry, government
labs, and academia
