Masters and SUGS Programs

The following programs, Engineering Global Leadership Honors (EGL) and Sequential Undergraduate and Graduate Studies (SUGS), are available for chemical engineering students interested in pursuing joint BSE and MSE or MEng degrees. Students pursuing dual degrees are not eligible to enroll in SUGS programs. For more information, visit the ChE undergraduate office at 3146 Dow.

The Engineering Global Leadership Honors Program (EGL) allows students to complement their chemical engineering background with courses in the School of Business Administration and global-focused courses in LS&A. The program produces students capable of communicating across the engineering and business boundary of operating comfortably in another culture. The program leads to two degrees: a BSE ChE and an MSE ChE degree. There is no double counting of credits.
