 Return to: Academic Programs
In addition to adhering to General Education , students must meet the following requirements to receive the B.S. in Chemical Engineering at UC Merced.
All students in the School of Engineering, regardless of major, are required to complete all requirements for all majors with a C- or better unless the course is offered as Pass/No Pass only, which requires a P grade.
Students in the School of Engineering must repeat a required course after receiving a grade of D+, D, D-, F, Unsatisfactory, or Not Passed, and may do so no more than twice beyond the initial enrollment in the class. Students may repeat a course only one time (for a total of two attempts to earn a C- or better). If students do not complete these requirements, they may take these courses at another institution or petition the school who hosts the course for a third attempt. The third attempt is not guaranteed at UC Merced.

Computational Emphasis
Computational tools such as machine learning, materials simulation, and multi-scale modeling are revolutionizing nearly all aspects of our modern world. These tools enable materials properties prediction and discovery; rapid synthesis and characterization of new materials for emerging applications; and control of chemical and materials processing for improved quality control for semiconductors, beverages and food, and other manufacturing applications.
Computational Emphasis Core Requirement [11-12 units]
Complete the following courses in satisfaction of the CHE technical elective requirement:
Additional Program Learning Outcomes for the Computational Emphasis
Upon completion, graduates will be able to:
- demonstrate fundamental understanding of computational tools used in understanding and predicting materials properties;
- demonstrate fundamental understanding of computational tools used for control of materials processing;
- demonstrate the basic hands-on ability to use computational tools for materials property predictions and processing;
- demonstrate the ability to apply basic knowledge from different fields in the context of materials computation;
- view materials computation from inter- and multi-disciplinary perspectives.
