for technological exploitation in the convergent classroom.ContentThe undergraduate chemical engineering curriculum typically encompasses the followingchemical engineering courses: material and energy balances, thermodynamics, transportphenomena (often separated into fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer), kinetics (orreactor design), process control, plant design, analysis, and unit operations laboratory. Each ofthese classes contributes more or less directly to one or more of the three pillars of chemicalprocess engineering: design, control, and optimization. In particular, process design reliesheavily on the concepts taught in thermodynamics (to determine whether or not a proposedprocess is even possible), material and energy
