Items for Approval: I) Chemical Engineering Background and Motivation A number of changes to Chemical Engineering are proposed. The two main motivations in the proposal are: i) Embed 8-month work terms in the co-op sequence. It has come to light that at least one-third of Chemical

Engineering students are following a path outside of the normal sequence and this has created a need for numerous stream switches. The double work term is desired by both the students and by industry.

ii) Restructure the fourth year to improve the undergraduate experience. It will capture the capstone design experience and offer electives more efficiently. The plan will bring all students together in 4A/4B. It was noted that scheduling implications have been considered and a mock schedule has produced no conflicts.

A memo follows from M. Ioannidis which includes the proposed study/work sequence with one extended work term (Table 1). A feasibility brief from CECA, which supports the proposal follows and outlines the background, analysis, summary and implementation of the proposed changes. The revised calendar material represents the individual changes to the curriculum and a summary of the major curriculum changes is also outlined in the memo from M. Ioannidis. Major changes occur in the 3B, 4A and 4B terms, as well as with the laboratory experience and work-term reports. Minor changes include: • an expansion of the calendar description for CHE 514 to more accurately describe the topics taught • an antirequisite of ME 459 is added to CHE 516 due to extensive overlap in the content of both courses • the course MSCI 432, Productive and Service Operations Management, is added to the technical elective List 2

(Materials and Manufacturing Processes) and List 3 (Chemical Process Modelling, Optimization and Control) – this was added as an amendment at the Faculty U/G Studies Committee

• the course NE 335, Soft Nanomaterials, is added to the technical elective List 2 • prerequisite levels and other minor corrections are made to CHE 313, 541, 543, 572, and 574. NOTE: The changes are to be effective for the incoming class of September 2017.

Memorandum To: P. Douglas

From: M. Ioannidis

Date: 3/25/2016

Re: Calendar Changes – Chemical Engineering

Dear Prof. Douglas, A number of changes to the Chemical Engineering section of the Undergraduate Calendar are detailed herewith. These changes have been approved at the departmental meeting of March 14th, 2016, and are submitted for approval by the FUGS Committee. The most obvious feature of the proposed changes is the formalization of 8-month co-op for both streams. As shown in Table 1, one extended (8-month) work term would be available to students of both streams in the 3rd year of their studies. The plan brings students from both streams together in a Fall 4A term. The main motivation for the proposed changes is: 1. To embed eight-month work terms in the co-op sequence. There is evidence to suggest that this

will improve the cooperative experience for our students. 2. To restructure the fourth year to add depth to the laboratory and design experiences, thereby

improving outcomes related to CEAB Graduate Attributes #3, #4 and #5.

Table 1. Proposed study/work sequence: 4D and 8D streams (one extended work term)

Separate summaries of proposed major and minor changes are presented overleaf. Sincerely, M. Ioannidis

Summary of Major Curriculum Changes:

(1) 3B Term • Replace a CSE/TE slot with ChE 341 (Introduction to Process Control, currently numbered ChE 420).

Rationale: Process control can be taught in 3B and a student who has this introduction may be able to (i) appreciate control systems in the context of ChE 480, (ii) engage with process control laboratory activities in 4A, and, (iii) may be better prepared for related senior co-op jobs.

• Create a new 0.25-weight (2LEC) course ChE 383 (Chemical Engineering Design Workshop) aimed at developing the fundamentals of process/product design, project management, etc., and dedicate ChE 482 entirely to the capstone design project, rendering ChE 482 equivalent to ChE 483. Rationale: ChE 383 is equivalent to the lecture component of ChE 482. Earlier delivery of this content will enable students to dedicate ChE 482 entirely to their own design project in 4A. The proposed changes effectively double the time allocated to capstone design projects and should have a positive effect on the quality of the design experience and the development of related graduate outcomes.

• Remove the lab course ChE 391. Rationale: It is advantageous to move the content of ChE 391 (electrochemistry-focused experiments) to the 3rd and 4th year, given that the required background is developed by ChE 331 in 3B. This change is connected to a complete rethinking of 4th-year laboratories as explained in the note “Laboratory Experience”.

(2) 4A Term • Replace ChE 420 (Introduction to Process Control) with a CSE/TE slot. Rationale: see comments

related to ChE 341 above. • Rename ChE 490 Chemical Engineering Lab 4 (was 5), increase its weight to 0.5 and refocus this as an

open-ended lab. Rationale: see note on “Laboratory Experience”. (3) 4B Term

• Add ChE 491 (Chemical Engineering Lab 5) with a weight of 0.5. Rationale: see note on “Laboratory Experience”.

(4) Laboratory Experience • Following the acquisition of a significant amount of new equipment in recent years, the Department is

in a position to re-imagine the laboratory experience of senior students along the following lines: student-driven design of experimental investigations; guided exploration of complex systems in main areas of application of chemical engineering extending over the entire 4th year and coupled with TE choices; communication of engineering data across groups; integration with the capstone design project; leveraging of numerical simulation and integration with ChE 480, etc. We presently have equipment to support project-based labs in (i) Reaction Engineering; (ii) Separation Process; (iii) Bioprocess Engineering; (iv) Electrochemical Engineering; (v) Materials Engineering; (vi) Process Control.

(5) Work term reports • For both 4X and 8X streams: WKRPT 200 in 2B, WKRPT 300 in 3A and WKRPT 400 in the term

after the 8-month co-op placement. This achieves equal distribution of work term reports in each of Winter, Spring and Fall terms.

Teaching and Scheduling Implications:

• 3B is still offered Fall and Winter (as now). • No 4A term in the Spring. Equitable offering of ChE TEs in the Fall and Winter terms only. • ChE 480 will be offered only in the Fall and will double in size. Two teaching tasks will continue to be

allocated to this course. • A mock schedule has been generated that demonstrates it is possible to accommodate the new labs, as

well as ensure conflict-free access to ChE-owned TEs for the 3B, 4A and 4B classes.

Summary of minor changes:

1. Change of calendar description for ChE 514 (Fundamentals of Petroleum Production). The expanded description makes evident the main topics actually taught in the course.

2. ME 459 (Energy Conversion) is declared antirequisite for ChE 516 (Energy Systems Engineering). This declaration is necessary because the content of the two courses is highly overlapping.

3. MSCI 432 (Production and Service Operations Management) is added as approved technical elective in List 2 (Materials and Manufacturing Processes). This course is a good fit for List 2 because it addresses management, planning, and control decisions in manufacturing settings using quantitative approaches. Topic areas include production, inventory, distribution, quality control, facilities layout, and process design.

4. NE 335 (Soft Nanomaterials) is added as approved technical elective in List 2 (Materials and Manufacturing Processes). This course is a good fit for List 2 because it covers applications of macromolecules in the manufacturing of nanostructured materials and nanoscale devices.

5. Prerequisite level or minor typographical corrections are made for a number of courses: ChE 313, ChE 541, ChE 543, ChE 572, ChE 574.

Background Normally, the introduction of a new program, or significant change of an existing program requires the completion of a CECA feasibility study. As the Department of Chemical Engineering has proposed only a new work/study sequence without any planned program expansion, CECA has prepared this feasibility brief to consider potential impacts of this change. Summary of proposed changes The Department of Chemical Engineering has a proposed a revision of their work/study sequencing for the Fall 2017 incoming cohort. No increased enrolment is anticipated as a result of these changes. These new sequences are shown in table 1, and are being introduced for two primary reasons, as follows:

- To embed eight-month work terms in the co-op sequences; - To restructure the fourth year to add depth to the laboratory and design experiences.

Notes: (1) changes in current sequence shown in yellow; (2) resultant 8-month work terms shown in green; (3) resultant, desired alignment of fourth-year terms shown in blue. Analysis of proposed changes The proposed sequences allow for 8-month work terms in both stream 4 and stream 8 sequences. As both sequences represent new configurations with Engineering, they will require appropriate naming conventions, such as 4Y and 8Y. Interestingly, most established 8-month work terms take place over the Winter and Spring semesters, and as a result, stream 8Y will introduce new flexibility in 8-month availability for employers. (Note: the Faculty of Mathematics is currently the only other faculty with scheduled 8-month work terms in the Spring / Fall terms) The current Chemical Engineering sequences yield an even distribution of available students across each semester. The proposed sequences, however, introduce an imbalance across the three semesters in which students are scheduled to work. Once the sequences reach steady state (Table 2), five cohorts will be scheduled for work in Spring, four cohorts will be scheduled for work in Winter, and three cohorts will be scheduled for work in Fall. The additional load in the Spring term is noted as a concern, with first work term employment for the stream 8Y cohort particularly at risk.

In addition, the Spring term typically experiences the lowest employment rates (Figure 1), a phenomenon thought to be the result of increased external competition for summer jobs. While intermediate and senior students may be largely unaffected due to their work experience and increased marketability, any increased load on the Spring work term has the potential to exacerbate existing employment challenges, especially for first-work term students. Figure 1: Historical Chemical Engineering, Faculty, and UW employment rates by term.

Notes on 8-month work terms The introduction of an 8-month work term has the potential to generate new opportunities from employers who are currently resistant to 4-month postings, perceiving them to be too short. Attracting new employers, however, does not guarantee that jobs will be posted for eight months, or that students will remain with the same employer for eight months. Both employers and students have indicated that it is more important to have the right employer-employee fit, than to commit a student to an 8-month contract. Recent employer surveys indicate that the large majority of employers prefer the flexibility of 4-month or 8-month work terms, rather than exclusively hiring for either duration. A preferred model, then, is for employers to post an initial 4-month work term commitment with the option to extend the work term to eight months. This suggestion mirrors behaviour witnessed in tracking 8-month work terms in both Nanotechnology Engineering and Architecture. In Nanotechnology Engineering, more than 70% of students opted to stay with the same employer for both consecutive work terms, while in Architecture, this figure rises to more than 90%. In reviewing the job postings, a majority of these 8-month commitments were initially advertised as four-month positions, and then extended by the employers at a later point. While it is impossible to predict the behaviour of Chemical Engineering students in an 8-month work term, similar behaviour is anticipated. Still, it is expected that some students will obtain two separate four-month work terms during their scheduled double work term. CECA will provide off-campus support for job applications through JobMine or WaterlooWorks for those students that do opt to re-enter the job search process after four months. Off-campus support is taxing on CECA resources, however, because employers have come to expect that students are available for on-campus interviews. Accordingly, students engaged in a work term require personalised support for each of their applications. Nevertheless, CECA remains committed to this support, and must anticipate the potential added strain on resources whenever an 8-month work term is introduced into a work/study sequence. Job development The proposed change in sequence will not add net new students to the Chemical Engineering program. Accordingly, job development must be specifically targeted to address (a) the regular availability of senior students able to accommodate 8-month commitments, and (b) the increased load of students scheduled for a work term in Spring. CECA experience suggests new job development and attendant employer relationships occur over a span of one year or more leading up to the first scheduled work term. In this case, new job development will be driven by the introduction of 8-month work terms. With the new work/study sequence effective for the Fall 2017 intake, the first formally-structured 8-month work terms will begin in Spring 2020, giving CECA ample time to develop these new employer partnerships.

At the same time, CECA must continue in its ongoing Chemical Engineering job development efforts, with a particular emphasis on Spring-term jobs. In 2021, the new work/study sequence will reach steady-state, resulting in five student cohorts (~325 students @ 65 students per cohort) seeking employment in Spring, as compared to four cohorts currently (~260 students). A corresponding increase of net new jobs will be needed in order to simply maintain existing employment levels; realistically, a proportionately higher number of jobs will be needed to account for job postings that go unfilled, or that are filled by other Engineering students. Early Implementation The Chemical Engineering department is exploring early implementation of the proposed changes, so to be effective for both the Fall 2016 and Fall 2015 intake classes. Given that the Undergraduate Calendars have already been published for these cohorts, Chemical Engineering will require unanimous student approval in order to proceed. Initial feedback collected by the department, however, suggests that students are overwhelmingly in favour of the proposed changes, and as such, CECA must anticipate a revised implementation schedule. Early implementation of the proposed work/study sequence will result in the first 8-month work terms beginning as early as Spring 2018, with steady state being reached in 2019. While this presents a condensed schedule for job development, this still provides approximately two years to attract new employers interested in hiring students for 8-months, and three years to increase overall job opportunities to accommodate the higher student loads in Spring. Summary CECA is in support of work/study sequence revisions proposed by the Department of Chemical Engineering, which would incorporate 8-month work terms into both student streams. Targeted job development efforts will be required to (a) increase employment opportunities in Spring term, and (b) entice new and current employers to hire students for 8-months. It is recognized that employers may ultimately opt to post four-month positions only, but it is anticipated that the regular availability of students for 8-month work terms will be attractive to employers previously resistant to partnering with CECA. Early implementation of the proposal could result in the first scheduled 8-month work terms as early as Spring 2018, with steady state for the new sequences being reached in 2019. Even with this condensed timeframe, however, CECA should have ample opportunity to solicit interest from employers. CECA will also provide off-campus job search support for 8-month work term students employed for only four months. It is anticipated that the need for off-campus support will be low, as most students are expected to extend their initial work term commitments.

II) Mechatronics Engineering Background and Motivation The following changes are proposed:

i. A special topics course (ME 597) with the title “Autonomous Mobile Robots” has been offered for seven years in the fall term. For the past three fall terms (2013, 2014 and 2015) Mechatronics undergraduate students have made up 95% of the course enrolment. Therefore it is proposed that the Mechatronics-related special topics course is converted to a MTE- designated course (MTE 544) with the same title.

ii. A new technical elective entitled “Multi-sensor Fusion” was offered in the Winter 2016 term as a special topics course (ME 597e) and it ran at full enrolment capacity. The course covers specialized topics in sensors and systems for mechatronics and it is felt that it will be a very popular 4B technical elective; therefore it is proposed that it is converted to a MTE- designated course (MTE 546) with the same title.

iii. Housekeeping changes include: replace CIVE 127 with CIVE 105 as an antirequisite to MTE 119 (CIVE 127 is no longer offered); revise the prerequisites of MTE 322 to include MTE 262 rather than ME 262, which is not available to Mechatronics students.

III) Nanotechnology Engineering Background and Motivation The following changes are proposed to update course information and to streamline student technical elective selection:

i. Change course titles for NE 202 to Nanomaterials and Environmental Impact; Nanotechnology Engineering Practice, and NE 301 to Nanomaterials and Human Risks, Benefits; Nanotechnology Engineering Practice. These changes better reflect the course focus for each.

ii. Create a special topics course, NE 453 Special Topics in Nanotechnology Engineering, to allow topics not readily available in the four areas of concentration for the program.

iii. Remove the prerequisite NE 353 for NE 471 and NE 335 for NE 481, as the fourth year courses do not build on the material from the third year courses and this may limit student freedom to take other technical electives.
