Program Prerequisites for Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering (B.S.) typically include: Program Prerequisites: Educational Requirements: A high school diploma or equivalent. Strong performance in mathematics, chemistry, physics, and biology at the high school level. Completion of pre-calculus or calculus, general chemistry, and physics may be required for some programs. Recommended High School Coursework: Advanced mathematics (Calculus, Algebra, Geometry). Chemistry (preferably with a focus on general chemistry and organic chemistry). Physics (understanding of mechanics, electricity, and thermodynamics). English and social science courses to strengthen communication and analytical skills. Standardized Tests (if applicable): SAT or ACT scores are commonly required for admission to undergraduate programs. Some schools may focus on math and science scores. Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) credits in subjects like chemistry, physics, and mathematics may give students advanced standing. Minimum GPA: A competitive high school GPA of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale is typically expected, with emphasis on strong performance in math and science courses. Application Components: Application form with personal and educational details. High school transcript or equivalent proof of academic performance. Letters of recommendation (optional but beneficial, particularly from science or math teachers). Personal statement or essay (required by some programs) detailing the applicant’s interest in chemical engineering and career goals. English Language Proficiency (for international students): TOEFL, IELTS, or an equivalent test to assess proficiency in English may be required for international students. Additional Considerations: Extracurricular activities, especially in STEM fields (science fairs, internships, or engineering-related clubs), can strengthen an application. Some programs may have placement tests to evaluate math or science skills for entering students.
