Seminar in Chemical and Environmental Engineering

Graduate / Professional

The purpose of this course is to introduce graduate students to state-of-the-art research and engineering practice across chemical and environmental engineering so that students develop an appreciation of the breadth of academic and applied research questions being addressed at Yale, including by senior Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers, and at other universities and organizations. A key component of the course is to encourage students to develop the ability to contextualize their own work in relation to broader research and applications questions in CEE. The course centers on participation in seminars during the term. The course also encourages students to organize journal clubs, enhance their research literacy, and network with invited speakers. The course requires extensive participation by students as speakers, moderators, and active audience participation. Finally, it helps foster a sense of community within CEE. Attendance is monitored as appropriate. The course is graded Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory. All CEE master’s and Ph.D. students are encouraged to enroll and participate. 0 Course cr HTBA
