This is computer lab course for the undergraduate students of chemical engineering. We will be using MATLAB as the language for solving chemical engineering problems which the students encounter not only in their undergraduate curriculum but are also relevant and important in process industries. The course will impart the not only MATLAB programming skills but also the skills on problem analysis, solution, interpretation and presentation of results.

Intended audience: - Undergraduate students of chemical engineering - University/college faculty

Prerequisites: The students should ideally be in the 3rd/4th year of their undergraduate degree who have had courses on fluid mechanics, reaction engineering, heat transfer and mass transfer.
