About this course

Chemical engineering transforms scientific knowledge of chemistry and physics into industrial-scale processes that produce the materials and substances modern life depends on, from fuels and polymers to pharmaceuticals and food ingredients. It is a discipline that demands both rigorous scientific understanding and the ability to design, optimise, and control complex systems. Chemical engineers must think simultaneously about chemistry, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, heat and mass transfer, and the economic and safety constraints that govern industrial production. At Nottingham, this programme is built on strong research foundations and a commitment to producing graduates who are technically excellent and professionally prepared. The course is offered with a foundation year for students who need additional preparation before the main programme, and includes a sandwich year placement tha
