Objectives and Student Outcomes

Program Educational Objectives

The graduates of the Qatar University Chemical Engineering Program will:

PEO1. Practice chemical engineering skills in chemical engineering related careers including hydrocarbon processing, power and desalination, and government agencies.

PEO2. Take an active role and participate in their continuous professional development including graduate studies when appropriate to their career goals.

PEO3. Maintain ethical and professional standards in their careers.

These program educational objectives were revised in consultation with the program’s stakeholders in Fall 2014.
