• CHE 331HTransport Phenomena Iopens 10 courses (1 directly)
• CHE 332HTransport Phenomena IIopens 8 courses (0.3 directly)
• CHE 333HTransport Phenomena IIIopens 7 courses (2 directly)
• CHE 411Mass Transfer Operationsopens 3 courses (2 directly)

The map

Intro tiers at the top, advanced work below; arrows point from a prerequisite to the course it unlocks. Courses from other departments appear where they gate CHE work. Click any course to see what it requires and unlocks without leaving this page; hovering lights up its neighbors. The lists on this page carry the same courses in text form.

Showing the 47 CHE and feeder courses that have prerequisite links. 40 more CHE courses have no recorded prerequisites. They are listed under Tracks below, not drawn as loose dots here.

Concentration routes

The concentrations and majors that build on CHE, and how their requirements are structured. Expand a program to see which courses satisfy each group, then plan it in the Planner.

Tracks

Upper-level clusters, grouped by the gateway that opens them.
