Louisiana Tech University’s Chemical Engineering program has added a new experiment to the Senior Unit Operations Lab. The fermentation experiment is designed to help students understand biochemical reactions and as an experiment that the students would enjoy.
If the Unit Operations Lab can navigate a pandemic, then we all can. In our Be Brief format, we explore the challenges and adaptations of lab courses.
Teaching labs is what we do. More than 95% of Michigan Technological University undergrads are enrolled as science, technology, engineering and math majors. We can talk a lot about STEM, but at the end of the day, lab experiences are a crucial part of education. And the pandemic has disrupted lab courses as much as lectures and research.
6,500 square feet of industrial engineering. The Unit Operations Lab is a three-story laboratory where upper-level chemical engineering students learn to run experiments
