Or perhaps themaxim about “an hour in the library is worth a month in the laboratory” might bemeaningful in the context of teaching. This paper summarizes the authors’ selection ofthe most effective, innovative approaches reported recently in the literature or discussedat previous conferences for lower-division core courses in chemical engineering, aspresented at the 2007 ASEE Summer School for Chemical Engineering Faculty. Thechallenges associated with particular courses and solutions successfully applied toaddress those challenges will also be described. Courses covered in this paper

simply applying a nano or bio “coat of paint” to existingcourses will serve the students well. Given the wide differences between the macroscopic andmolecular approaches to teaching the students may end viewing nanotech and biotech asunrelated, rather than integral parts of their ChE education. We have chosen to address these curricular and pedagogical challenges by bringingundergraduate research and laboratory experiences into the classroom. This has beenaccomplished through the creation of degree projects: projects that will span the entire four yearsof a student’s undergraduate education. For example, students pursuing a nano-emphasis have adegree project entitled “Nanoparticles”, while the degree project for bio-emphasis students is

Graduatestudents are reminded about the importance of material safety data sheet, safe experimentalpractice and waste disposal constraints within the organization. However, addressing the samecomponents every semester may not be an effective methodology, particularly for residentgraduate students. Further, there are a number of safety issues one has to consider and oneseminar may not be sufficient to address all the components with ever changing global issues.For example
