Students choose which chemical engineering systems they want tostudy (out of four possible options), spending four hours each week in the laboratory and onehour each week in lab-lecture. Each experiment involves multiple unit operations, which leads tosome variation in the student experience due to division

chemical engineering curricula in line with professionalconcerns [1], many laboratory experiments have remained relatively unchanged. One reason forthis is the high cost of laboratory equipment that prevents most departments from purchasingnew equipment unless necessary. As much of the laboratory equipment is fixable by replacingparts, it is not uncommon for teaching laboratories to have the same equipment for decades. Forexample, in one of our study sites, the valve used for an experiment on level control on a watertank is being replaced, which is not an uncommon occurrence. However, that particular valvewas manufactured in 1947 and has been used on that exact experiment since 1952 (Figure 2).Likewise, a set of packed-bed columns have been used

While typicallyutilized in traditional lecture-based courses, there is significant promise in utilizingundergraduate students as a peer resource in a lab-based course.

The course is designed to teachexperimental statistics in the lecture component (two days a week) with the students performingexperiments on three different unit operations (one day a week) for 3 four-week experimentalcycles.

A distinctive feature of UOLs compared toundergraduate laboratories in other fields, like chemistry, is the use of the so-called pilot-scaleexperimentation[3] which introduces students to new scales of experimentation, mainly orientedtoward the manufacturing industry. From the educational point of view, pilot-scaleexperimentation in UOLs is a unique experience for undergraduate chemical engineeringstudents but it might hamper the ability to teach laboratory courses outside of lab facilities.
