This Master’s program focuses on several important tools such as innovative processes and separation techniques, biological engineering, biotechnology, catalytic engineering and polymers, and chemical process safety. This program is ideal for those who wish to pursue a career which requires solid knowledge of the methods in chemical processes, development, biotechnology and safety processes. Chemical engineering involves scaling up from a laboratory reaction to an industrial process is the main challenge for chemical engineers. This is a complicated optimization problem at many levels: environmental impact, energy consumption and cost must be minimized and the quality and process safety maximized.
