Facilities
Sweeney Hall houses classrooms, a reading room, computer laboratories, research and teaching laboratories, and departmental and staff offices.
The building is open from 7 a.m. to 12 midnight Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, and noon to midnight on Sunday, except holidays.
Research Labs
The instructional laboratories and additional faculty offices and research laboratories are located in the new addition to Sweeney Hall at the west end of the complex.
Take a look at the equipment in the laboratory area — you will probably see some equipment familiar to you, and you can find out about the unfamiliar items by asking any staff member.
You are invited to stop in at any of the research labs and ask about the research work in progress.
Reading Room
Room 3149, on the third floor is a large reading room, which is open each day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. It contains a large collection of reading material including pertinent chemical engineering journals, job information, and graduate school information.
Computation Laboratories
The Chemical & Biological Engineering Department has a growing list of computer resources in Sweeney Hall available to undergraduate students. See the College of Engineering IT site for troubleshooting information.
Design Rooms
Two rooms (1153 & 1157 Sweeney) have been set aside for undergraduate students to use for studying or working on projects. No reservations are necessary. If you do want to ensure that the room will be available at a particular time, just hang a note on the door beforehand.
