Carnegie Mellon’s Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering BS equips students to tackle humanity’s grand challenges—-from decarbonizing heavy industry to manufacturing life-saving biologics. You’ll master transport phenomena, catalysis, biochemical reactor design, and data-driven process control while working in state-of-the-art labs that mimic industrial pilot plants. A required global engineering project pairs you with multinational companies to redesign supply chains for net-zero goals, and the department’s small cohort size fosters close mentorship from faculty shaping the future of electro-fuels, protein therapeutics, and soft-matter robotics.
