This course establishes core chemical engineering knowledge through practical and project-based learning with an emphasis on industrial challenges. The skills and experience gained will enable you to design safe, sustainable and cost-effective chemical plants and processes. With online resources, industry-standard facilities and exceptional learning environments, you’ll be supported at every step. Throughout your studies you’ll gain highly-valued skills, knowledge and professional behaviours. By undertaking individual and group projects, you’ll learn how to solve industry-related problems using creativity, critical thinking, teamwork and communication. In your first year you’ll gain an insight into the role of professional engineering institutes and the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE). Representatives and local members of the IChemE will be able to answer your questions on professional body memberships, allowing you to develop contacts and build your network.
