Chemical Engineering

About this course

Chemical engineering transforms the discoveries of chemistry and the principles of physics into processes that can be scaled, controlled, and operated safely and economically. It is the discipline responsible for the design and operation of the systems that produce medicines, fuels, food, plastics, fertilisers, semiconductors, and countless other materials on which modern life depends. Chemical engineers must understand both the chemistry of the reactions they work with and the engineering of the reactors, separation processes, heat exchangers, and control systems that carry those reactions out at scale. This programme at the University of Huddersfield includes a foundation year for students who need to build the scientific and mathematical preparation needed for degree-level engineering, as well as a sandwich year and work placement, giving you substantial professional experience withi
