Course Overview

These programmes will provide you with core scientific and engineering knowledge coupled with a range of transferrable skills – analysis, communications, information technologies, management, problem solving and teamwork – to prepare you for a career in areas such as commodity and specialty chemicals, fertilisers, food processing, fuels and energy production, minerals processing, petrochemicals, petroleum refining, pharmaceuticals or water treatment. If you opt to take the BEng/MEng Chemical Engineering with Environmental Engineering, you will acquire the essential core knowledge and skills of chemical engineering enhanced with an emphasis on the minimisation of environmental impacts, enabling you to create environmentally responsible solutions to the engineering challenges of tomorrow.

MEng

MEng students will need to undergo at least 12 weeks of?industrial training in an external institution and meet appropriate?coursework requirement before starting 4th year of study.
