William G. Lowrie Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Cooperative Learning Experiences Autumn 2017 through Autumn 2018

The Engineering Cooperative Education & Internship Program (ECIP) helps undergraduate students to obtain career-related employment of two types: cooperative education (co-op) positions and internships. A co-op experience provides an opportunity to apply what is learned in the classroom in career-related positions by alternating semesters of full-time coursework with periods of paid, full-time employment. Internship involves one work period with an employer. A work period may last for one semester or for two consecutive semesters. Summer internships are the most popular among students and employers.

Students meet with academic advising staff to evaluate different schedule arrangements before interviewing because many employers hire for specific "rotations". For instance, students may work full- time during the summer term, attend full-time classes in autumn, and return to their employer for full- time work in the spring. The most popular term to work is the summer. Last year, CBE students completed 71 co-op rotations and 94 internship or part-time work experiences (as reported by students to Engineering Career Services).

William G. Lowrie Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering 2018 Placement Record for Undergraduates

Graduates of our program continue to have a strong placement record both within industry and within graduate and professional programs. The percentages provided here are based on senior exit surveys at the time of graduation, therefore, this information is self-reported by the students.

Sixty-one percent of our graduates will be going directly to industry with their B.S. degrees (as reported upon graduation; many additional placements are reported within six months of graduation). About six percent of our students will be going on to graduate or professional school. Approximately 43% of our students have accepted positions in and will stay in the state to pursue their post graduation plans. Students will be working at various corporations such as Exxon Mobil, the Dow Chemical Company, Procter and Gamble, and General Mills.

A number of our graduates received Latin Honors, With Research Distinction Honors or With Honors in Engineering. Latin honors are defined as follows: a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.5-3.69 is Cum Laude; 3.70-3.89 is Magna Cum Laude; and 3.90-4.00 is Summa Cum Laude.

A student who graduates “With Honors Research Distinction” is an honors student (greater than a 3.4 GPA) who has completed a senior Honors research thesis. A student who graduates “With Research Distinction” is a student (GPA between 3.0-3.39) who has completed a senior research thesis. A student who graduates “With Honors in Engineering” has completed a three-pronged program consisting of completing a required number of honors courses, participation in community service, leadership and outreach as well participation in “investigational studies” which typically includes completing a research paper or thesis or completing a minor. Fourteen graduated with Honors in Engineering and eleven students graduated with Distinction in various disciplines.

Engineering Career Services (ECS) welcomes all employers to register, to recruit Ohio State engineering students and graduates. There is no cost to register and no fees for ECS services. If you, or someone you know, is interested in hiring Ohio State students for co-op experiences, internships or for full time placement, please contact Amy Thaci, Director of Engineering Career Services at (614) 292-6651.

2018-2019 Undergraduate Scholarship Information

A total of 118 students were awarded undergraduate scholarships in the Chemical & Biomolecular program. The vast majority of those students were current majors, although a small amount went to recruit high ability first year students as well. A total of $344,900 was awarded to students heading into the 2018-2019 school year. The average award was $2922 this year compared to $2496 the previous year.

Trends in data from financial aid show that the number and amount of both student and parent loans have been increasing. Both Ohio State tuition and University financial support have increased yearly. However, since the increase in scholarship support hasn’t been able to keep up with tuition increases, engineering students and their families have had to increase their debt levels to cover the additional costs. In the William G. Lowrie Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, department scholarships from alumni and corporate donors help defray a small part of the loans burden for many of our students.

Department scholarships are determined mainly by need, however, when a scholarship specifies that a student’s merit be considered, both merit and need are taken into account. We thank those of our alumni who have established scholarship endowments for this purpose as well as our corporate donors who provide scholarships on an annual basis.
