New logo announcement! "I am pleased to share that our department now has an official logo—our very first. This new design captures the energy, creativity, and collaborative spirit that define our community. The sphere contains vibrant elements swirling, colliding, and mixing together as they create an abstract “X” (an important part of our identity). Each part flows seamlessly into the others, symbolizing the dynamic exchange of ideas and interdisciplinary teamwork that drives our research and learning. The movement within the design reflects not only the energy and curiosity we bring to our work but also the joy we find in discovery and experimentation. Thank you all for the enthusiasm, creativity, and collaboration that this logo embodies. I look forward to seeing it become a part of how we present ourselves to the world." - Kristala L. J. Prather Department Head, Chemical Engineering Arthur D. Little Professor MacVicar Faculty Fellow
About us
Formally established as a separate department in 1920, MIT’s Chemical Engineering department (ChemE) has not only set the standard for instruction and research in the field, it continues to redefine the discipline’s frontiers. With one of three undergraduate programs focusing on chemical-biological engineering for students interested in the emerging biotech and life sciences industries, and two of three graduate programs providing an experiential course of study in chemical engineering practice in collaboration with MIT’s Sloan School of Management, ChemE at MIT is quite unlike chemical engineering anywhere else.
