    The marketing internship uses the work place as a living laboratory for students to study in depth a marketing discipline. An internship is primarily an academic experience, not a part-time or full-time job, in which students work for a firm or organization under a supervisor and faculty sponsor to achieve specific educational objectives. Thus, a student earns degree credits for what is learned, not for work performed for the internship supervisor.

    CHE 0214 - INTRODUCTION TO CHEMICAL PRODUCT DESIGN


    Minimum Credits: 3
    Maximum Credits: 3
    Traditionally, chemical product design has focused on a set procedure for product development from conception to development and testing and finally the launching of the product. Unfortunately, this model which does not keep in mind the values or needs of the customer has resulted in a high number of failures for new product launches. What skills are thus needed in order to be entrepreneurial and succeed in the development of new chemical products within industry today?  This course examines the initial stages on how to approach chemical product design from an innovation perspective complete with the provision of the necessary technical skills to get the job done while placing an emphasis on the business and entrepreneurial skills required to be successful in the chemical product design business.
