to read the textbook for the details not covered in class. Lectures are held three times per
week:
MWF 9:00-9:50 am
The tutorial sessions and office hours are used to answer questions from previous
lectures and go over examples to reinforce concepts. Tutorial sessions and office hours are
held once per week:

Textbook: We will use the textbook "Process Dynamics and Control" by Dale E. Seborg et

The homework problems and controller design project enable the student to practice and
become proficient at applying the methods. The solution of homework problems is an
important part of the course. Keep a copy of the original for your records.

to email me or the TAs directly, please put “CHBE 356” in the subject line and use your UBC

Academic Integrity
The academic enterprise is founded on honesty, civility, and integrity. As members of this
enterprise, all students are expected to know, understand, and follow the codes of conduct
regarding academic integrity. At the most basic level, this means submitting only original
work done by you and acknowledging all sources of information or ideas and attributing
them to others as required. This also means you should not cheat, copy, or mislead others
about what is your work. Violations of academic integrity (i.e., misconduct) lead to the
breakdown of the academic enterprise, and therefore serious consequences arise and
harsh sanctions are imposed. For example, incidences of plagiarism or cheating may result
in a mark of zero on the assignment or exam and more serious consequences may apply if
the matter is referred to the President’s Advisory Committee on Student Discipline. Careful
records are kept in order to monitor and prevent recurrences.
Academic Concessions
Students seeking academic concession due to absence from the final exam for any reason
must apply to Engineering Student Services (ESS) within 72 hours of the missed exam. This
is a standard practice for all final examinations at UBC.
