MEng in Chemical Engineering

The MEng in chemical engineering is a one-year practically oriented program intended for those planning to make their careers in industry. This degree is attractive to those in industry or government who are interested in studying part-time. There are two formats of study to complete this program: course-based and project-based. Course-based format requires a successful completion of an approved 30 credit-hour program. A minimum of 15 credit hours of coursework must be taken from the ChE graduate-level course list. Project-based format requires a successful completion of 24 credit hours of which a minimum of 15 credit hours must be taken from the ChE graduate-level course list; and, completion of an industrial project, written report and oral presentation. The project must be supervised by a UNB faculty member and is generally completed over the summer period in collaboration with local industry and possibly on a co-operative work-study basis.
