Description

Take on the challenge of creating a more sustainable society by learning how to develop and manage resource efficient chemical engineering processes.

Our course is for engineers and scientists who want to play a leading role in innovating, designing and managing sustainable processes and systems. Improving resource efficiency is a major priority for process industries that rely on materials and energy. Our course focuses on giving you the tools to find sustainable ways to do more or better with less so that when you graduate you can be part of addressing this challenge.

Building on your first degree, you'll develop more in-depth knowledge and transferable skills in chemical engineering. You'll learn how to use material and energy resources more efficiently by:

minimising resource consumption and waste generation

recovering, valorising and re-using waste within a process or between different processes

You’ll learn how to apply whole-systems and life-cycle approaches to evaluate the impact of industrial activities on the environment and society. This ‘big-picture thinking’ gives you a deeper understanding and wider knowledge to move beyond traditional approaches to process engineering.

Case studies, design projects and research give you a balanced mix of theory and practice. You’ll work in teams on real and open-ended sustainability issues that challenge you to find solutions for complex and multi-dimensional problems. You'll work with a range of stakeholders, using new approaches and ways of thinking to agree a solution.

Based in our Department of Chemical Engineering, you’ll benefit from our links to industry. There are opportunities to hear from industrial and academic speakers at regular events in the Department. You’ll learn from academics with expertise in chemical engineering and sustainable technologies. Their international collaborations and research feed into teaching and contribute to your learning experience.

Our course prepares you for a career in academia or industry. You could work in traditional industries such as chemicals, pharma, food or beverages. Or, you could choose to work in the green sector, in areas such as renewable fuels or resource and waste management.

We encourage our top performing students to continue their studies with us on a PhD programme or join one of our EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training.
