Most engineering students come with certain interests and expectations about aparticular professional career. Pedagogical methods that work with students from non-engineering disciplines vary for students within engineering fields.

under pressure – from students as well as fromemployers – to provide curricula which allow new, young chemical engineers to work effectivelyin these fields. In addition, there is pressure – particularly from employers – to broaden students’skills and knowledge in “soft” areas – communications, economics, business and managementpractices, foreign languages, etc. At the same time, there is pressure – particularly from stategovernments – to avoid “credit-hour creep” and to graduate students in four years. One way tomeet these demands is through a layered curriculum in which all chemical engineering studentswould learn the minimum basic material needed to qualify as chemical engineers and then wouldadd layers of specialization and breadth. It is
