Chemical Engineering equips you with the knowledge to develop, design, and operate chemical processes and plants for extracting, converting, and recovering materials, drawing on both chemical and biological systems.
You’ll find yourself contributing to a wide range of industries that serve society’s needs. Some familiar areas include petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical and polymer production, bio-processing and bio-production, biopharmaceutics, and food processing. You could also work in fertiliser manufacturing, cement and lime production, minerals and metals extraction and refining, paper and board manufacturing, biomass and sugar refining, or the production of industrial and fine chemicals.
In your first year, you’ll study alongside other engineering disciplines, focusing on core subjects like physics, chemistry, and mathematics to develop the essential knowledge needed for your future specialisation.
