About the course

Chemical engineers play a vital role in tackling global challenges, particularly as populations expand, by developing efficient, safe, and sustainable processes to transform raw materials into valuable products. The programme emphasises altering the chemical, biochemical, and physical states of materials, supporting key sectors like food and drink, water, and energy. From the outset, students engage in process and plant design while building essential engineering skills and transferable competencies, including project management, business management, finance, analytics, and teamwork. Opportunities include a one-year paid industrial placement or study abroad, and the degree is accredited by the Institute of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and IOM3, ensuring it meets the UK Engineering Council's standards for professional competence.In the first two years, students gain foundational knowledge in engineering fundamentals, science, and design. After year two, a successful placement allows for practical industry experience. In year four, advanced modules culminate in an industry-focused group design project, simulating a commercial setting to enhance skills for a career in chemical engineering.

What you will learn

In year one and two, students develop knowledge of the engineering fundamentals, science and design. Following a successful placement application, you will spend a year working in industry at the end of year two. In year four, in addition to advanced modules, you will undertake an industry-focused group design project, which simulates a commercial environment and will allow you to develop and demonstrate valuable skills for your future career as a professional chemical engineer.
