Chemical engineering laboratory courses are com- posed of experiments that cover most of the major subject areas of chemical engineering. The rationale for combining all of the topics into two separate courses, as opposed to distributing them into the dif- ferent lecture courses, is to provide a focused learn- ing experience emphasizing experimental techniques to observe fundamental behavior, understanding of the phenomena in terms of the appropriate theory and experience at technical report writing. Formal and informal oral presentation skills are also an im- portant part of the courses. 280 281
