Chemical Engineering

Program Description

Chemical Engineers invent, design and operate industrial processes that convert raw materials into valuable products. Example products are food, pharmaceuticals, plastics, cleaning products, drinking water, fuel and electricity. These products are relevant to almost every aspect of our everyday lives.
The products are made by processes that change the chemical, biochemical or physical state of substances. Chemical Engineers need to understand how such transformations happen at both the molecular scale and the industrial scale. They need to know how transformations can be achieved economically, safely, and in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Chemical Engineers are key players in meeting the demand from consumers for more sophisticated products at affordable prices. They are key players in developing ‘green’ processes and in performing environmental clean-up operations. They are key players in achieving sustainable development.
