About this course
Master of Engineering in Chemical Engineering, a chemical engineering degree centred on industrial processes and sustainable technology. Core topics include Systems Design, Data Analysis, and Research Methods. The course spans four years and culminates in a major research project and comprehensive design project. The first year covers foundational principles through Reaction, Equilibria and Thermodynamics, Chemistry and Materials, Introduction to Transport Phenomena, and Process Design and Analysis. The second year focuses on operational mechanisms with Reactors, Catalysis and Thermodynamics, Sustainable Process Engineering, Mass, Heat and Momentum Transport, and Systems Design and Control. Third-year study introduces specialized engineering applications through Design Project, Advanced Reactors and Thermodynamics, Multiphase Systems, and Designing for Climate Change. The final year allows students to explore advanced technical areas and conduct independent investigations, featuring modules such as Advanced Transport Processes, Research Project, Biopharmaceutical Bioprocessing, and Industry 4.0 and Big Data.
