Joint government-industry-academia projects involving undergraduate students

In the senior year, chemical engineering students at Widener University are required to take two technical elective courses in addition to the rest of their regular courses. If a student pursues an independent study project with industry and a faculty member, then this project will usually count as a technical elective. If a student wishes to perform a work-study project then this will not count as credit but will provide the student with the opportunity to work directly with a professor or an industrial advisor on a contractual basis. Details on examples of both cases are presented for previous work and for research that is ongoing this semester at Widener University
