This broad degree covers the steps in a product's creation, from chemistry through to economics. Chemical engineers design, create and optimise the systems and equipment used in chemical, industrial, biological and environmental processes, producing a range of materials, like fuels, foods, beverages, polymers and pharmaceuticals.

 

Chemical Engineering bridges the study of the chemical and physical sciences with engineering. You will learn how to:

• design and develop chemical processes and equipment
• optimise and control industrial operations
• plan plant operations
• tailor management strategies
• work with nanoparticles
• minimise environmental impact
• manage pollution

 

Management, critical analysis and economics are key components of your training.
