About Linda and Doshi Bipin Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering
Missouri S&T’s Linda and Doshi Bipin Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering occupies the new Bertelsmeyer Hall that accommodates state-of-the-art research laboratories related to energy (including multiphase flow and reactors engineering, renewable fuels, and batteries), environmental applications including carbon capture and conversion, and biomedical applications such as biomaterials and drug and gene delivery. It also houses recently renovated teaching laboratories and classrooms. The Department received a $10M naming gift from Mr. Bipin and Mrs. Linda Doshi in the fall of 2020, the largest gift to an academic program at S&T. With the gift, three endowed professor positions were created. The Department offers degree programs in Chemical Engineering at the BS, MS, and PhD levels, as well as in Biomedical Engineering at the BS level and Bioengineering at the PhD level. Additionally, the Department provides two certificate programs. Currently, the Department has 17 faculty members including four AIChE fellows and one AIMBE fellow. Six current and former faculty are ranked among the world’s top 2% of scientists, according to the latest Stanford University report. The department's vision and strategic plan, activities, and research may be found at: https://chbe.mst.edu/.
