Applications or "apps" for computers and mobile devices are ubiquitous in modern technology. Several apps are available for teaching chemical engineering and are disseminated inexpensively or are freely available online. This paper highlights software apps that chemical engineering instructors may use "off the shelf" for iOS,…

Describes a two-quarter sequence of graduate courses in numerical methods and modeling for chemical engineers. Rationale, course content, methodology, topic development, and such course requirements as homework and design projects are considered. Emphasis is placed on the treatment of numerical methods implemented in commercial software. (JM)

Evaluates influence of computer assisted instruction on engineering education, considering use of computers to remove burden of doing calculations and to provide interactive self-study programs of a tutorial/remedial nature. Cites universities requiring personal computer purchase, pointing out possibility for individualized design assignments.…
