Chemical Engineering (BEng)H800

Chemical engineers transform raw materials into the materials and products we rely on. They develop, design and produce many of the products and materials that underpin or enhance our everyday lives; from the water we drink and the gas that powers our homes to cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, foodstuffs, silicon chips and even synthetic skin. Chemical engineers are innovators who can be found at the leading edge of new and emerging technologies such as: nanotechnologycarbon capturerenewable energy They are also adept at balancing economic considerations with safety and environmental requirements. The wide-ranging nature of chemical engineering is reflected in the breadth of courses we offer as part of this programme. If you are interested in learning how to use mathematics and chemistry to solve real problems that affect all of our lives, then chemical engineering could be for you. we educate students to become visionary professional engineers, critical thinkers and leaders?we give students skills to tackle tomorrow’s major societal challenges using Chemical Engineering principles?we maintain close links with industry to deliver relevant teaching, professional development and innovation?we foster a community of global thought leaders through research-led teaching?we build equality in society through our values of inclusion, diversity, and internationalismwe offer in Year 5 MEng an optional 6-month (paid) Industry Project, or semester 1 Overseas Study, or an in -house semester 1 research project?all our degrees are accredited byIChemE In REF 2021, our joint engineering submission with Heriot-Watt University was ranked 1st in Scotland and 3rd in the UK, based on the quality and breadth of our combined research by Times Higher Education. Our research directly impacts what you will study and addresses key future global challenges: driving the transition to a lower carbon futurenext generation materials and processesdata-driven innovation, robotics andAIsystemsmaking infrastructure and the environment safer and healthier Accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partially meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.
