Class materials

Announcements (previous ones) or follow @3k4reactors

An important final survey for 3K4 is required. You must fill out this peer-evaluation to complete your grade for the course project.

18 Apr: grades for assignment 4A AND 4B (combined) have been uploaded into Avenue.
18 Apr: grades for the final exam and course project will be available at the end of the month.
27 Apr: It's with great sadness that I wish to let you know that Dr. Don Woods passed away on Friday evening. He was a phenomenal instructor in our department, and we all still benefit from the work he did. The problem solving method we use (Define, Explore, Plan, Do, Check, Generalize) was adapted and refined for Chem Eng applications by him, among many other contributions. We will use much more of his work in your upcoming 4N4 course next term. Details about his life and funeral.
