Since childhood, chemical engineering junior Chris Stevens has enjoyed building
Apart from all the technical knowledge and skills I have learned at UK, the graduate chemical engineering program has helped me improve my leadership skills, especially the collaborative nature of research in Chemical Engineering department and opportunity to mentor several undergraduate students in their research
“Professors are always willing to meet with you outside of class time to further explain a topic. Their willingness to help has been a crucial part of my success in the materials engineering program at UK.”
The Chemical Engineering program gives a small community feeling within a big university. The professors and advisors are very supportive and have worked hard to help me reach my individual goals.
Learning to deal with problems is one of the biggest things Kevin Baldridge has learned so far as a college student. “Definitely, the most helpful thing at UK is learning how to solve problems,” he says. “My professors have taught me how to look at a problem from different angles to find the most effective solution.”
