OU School of Sustainable Chemical, Biological and Materials Engineering

OU School of Sustainable Chemical, Biological and Materials Engineering Educating chemical engineers to make an impact in energy, food and water supplies, & environmentally.

Chemical engineering was first taught at OU in 1912 and the first graduate degree was granted in 1918. Over the years that followed, the program has developed curricula with traditional strength in fundamentals, while tailoring electives for specializations suited to contemporary and future industrial need. In 1963, the Schools of Chemical Engineering and Metallurgical Engineering were combined in

to the School of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science. The name was recently changed to the school of Chemical Biological and Materials Engineering (CBME). This was done to reflect the increasing activities in the bioengineering area.

Staff Week was filled with fun and exciting adventures. The Amazing Race was one of the most fun events of the week. Your SCBME (and Courtney from CS) staff worked hard solving clues and running through campus (you might have seen us!). This final day was a tight race, but we finished in second place! 🥳 Thank you OU Staff Senate for making this entire week possible!

The Great Egg Estimation Event is now over. Thank you to all who participated! We had undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty, staff, visitors and by-passers make their best educated guess on the # of eggs in our puzzle. And the winner with a guess of 675 is…. Ben Strabala! Congratulations! Total egg count: 672.

Last week we had a great time meeting more than 400 high school students at the OU + OSU Engineering and Science night! Our team - made up of staff, faculty, and current OU engineering students - spent the evening answering questions, sharing experiences, and talking with students interested in engineering. We had some great conversations and loved getting to connect with so many future engineers!
