Chemical Engineering with Environmental Engineering, BEng (Hons)

By integrating chemical and environmental engineering, this program equips students to develop processes and products that reduce impacts on air, land, and water. As a chemical and environmental engineer, you will address key areas such as waste disposal, environmental compliance to mitigate spills and emissions, flooding and drainage management, infrastructure development, pollutant control, land recovery from mining or farming damage, water supply and sanitation, as well as sectors like food, energy, pharmaceuticals, consumer products, and oil and gas.The course fosters engineering expertise and professional skills for designing essential products, while building transferable abilities in project management, business, finance, analytics, and teamwork. It includes options for a paid one-year industrial placement or study abroad, and is accredited by the Institute of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and IOM3, meeting UK Engineering Council standards. The curriculum features a shared first year for foundational knowledge, transfer options to other courses, an industry-focused group project in year three, and a study load exceeding 40 hours weekly through lectures, tutorials, and self-directed work.
