Chemical Engineering Celebrates 100 Years
The Chemical Engineering timeline, below, displayed in Low Rotunda,
was but one highlight of a two-day commemoration of the department’s
100th anniversary. At right, Department Chair Alan West with Elmer
Gaden ’44, ’47, ’49,
professor emeritus at the University of Virginia, who is often called “the
father of biochemical engineering.” Columbia’s Chemical
Engineering Department has graduated 3,000 chemical engineers, 300
M.S. students and 150 doctoral students, 32 of whom became professors
of chemical engineering.
