This multidisciplinary program is at the heart of the petrochemical industry and advanced manufacturing. Understanding this topic is key to becoming a successful professional who understands how to effectively develop the right tools to maximize value in petrochemical, manufacturing, or synthesis plants and satisfy the current and future needs of the industry’s processes.

The program covers catalysis and its application in petrochemical industry. It provides the students with the knowledge to identify and apply various catalysts in the petrochemical industry. Topics include chemical kinetics and reaction mechanisms including methodology of mechanistic organic/inorganic chemistry, reactive intermediates, kinetics of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Furthermore, it also covers industrial catalysis with focus on the role of transition metals in catalytic processes, embracing the fundamentals of heterogeneous catalysis, including catalyst production and applications, shape selective catalysts, and the role of environmental catalysis in green chemistry. The program promotes interdisciplinary education where chemistry intersects with chemical engineering.
