The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering is proud to introduce two new teaching assistant professors: Katie O'Harra, specializing in polymers and dedicated to highlighting the societal impacts of chemical engineering, and Trevor Franklin, who brings a diverse background from both industry and academia, including NSF-funded engineering education.

Professor Ryan Hayward has witnessed the continued advancement of the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering since he joined CU Boulder four years ago. Now he’s looking forward to stepping into his new role as department chair.

When compared with its public university peers, the College of Engineering and Applied Science’s graduate program was ranked No. 12.

Starting in August, the BS degree in chemical and biological engineering (CBEN) will be renamed biological engineering (BIEN).

Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, researchers in Ankur Gupta’s lab are working on improving supercapacitors for energy storage by studying how they store energy at the nanoscale.

Congratulations to all our Spring 2024 graduates! We're thrilled to celebrate the success of our 17 PhDs, 17 MS and 86 BS students! View our photos from the chemical and biological engineering spring 2024 graduation.

Sanjeev Redkar (PhD ChemEngr’94) received the 2024 Distinguished Engineering Alumni award for his commitment to community service and educating future leaders and entrepreneurs while promoting innovation.

Wyatt Shields has been honored with a 2024 Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar award for his contributions to teaching and research on medical microrobots, self-propelled miniature robots that one day might deliver prescription drugs to hard-to-reach places inside the human body.

Ten graduate students and one post doctoral researcher were recognized in 2024 with Chemical and Biological Engineering Department awards.

Ben Mousseau (ChemBio’16) is grateful for the mentors who guided him. Now a global supply manager at Tesla, Mousseau has been giving back to the ChBE department by mentoring students through the department’s Alumni Student Mentor Program.
