Chemical engineers invent, design and implement processes through which raw materials are converted into valuable products, such as petrol, plastics, food additives, fertilisers, paper and pharmaceuticals. The program promotes development of practical, laboratory-based skills, combined with expertise in computing and simulation. You will develop expertise under the guidance of staff known internationally for their research in areas such as nanotechnology, carbon capture and storage, minerals and materials, natural gas processing and solvent extraction. Our degrees provide a range of opportunities for students to actively engage with industry, through a variety of collaborative programs such as projects and internships. This allows students to gain both theoretical and real-world knowledge within their field of engineering.
