Abstract

This article describes experiences with teaching process data analytics and machine learning, including in (1) a joint undergraduate/graduate course for students in chemical and mechanical engineering and engineering management and (2) an undergraduate chemical engineering concentration in process data analytics. The article also describes challenges in teaching data science to chemical engineers, and strategies for overcoming those challenges.
