Hello. I am currently a physics major attending a university where there is no true engineering degree. I was wondering if one who is pursuing a degree in physics would even have a chance of getting into a program involved with chemical engineering. To me, it seems the further along, physics and chemistry can intertwine together, especially when you look at such things as thermodynamics and quantum mechanics. My question is, would I qualify for entry into a graduate chemical engineering program (Generalize this. I am sure it depends all on the university being applied to) with an undergraduate degree in physics, or should I place my hope elsewhere? I am currently about a third of the way from completing my degree. Below is a list of courses I have, or will be taking:
Analytic Geometry and Calculus (three semester sequence)
Linear Algebra
Elementary Differential Equations
Introduction to Electrical Circuits
General Physics (two semester sequence)
Statics of Engineering
Intermediate Electricity and Magnetism (two semester sequence)
Introduction to Optics
Intermediate Mechanics
Introduction to Modern Physics
Thermal Physics
Quantum Mechanics (two semester sequence)
Atomic Physics
Nuclear Physics
Mathematics Electives (two semester sequence)
General Chemistry (two semester sequence)
