Chemical Engineering

About this course

Chemical engineering is the discipline that translates chemistry from laboratory experiment to industrial reality, designing and operating the processes through which chemical transformations are carried out at scale, safely, efficiently, and sustainably. At the University of Strathclyde, the MEng or BEng Chemical Engineering runs over four years of full-time study and includes a year abroad, giving you international experience in a discipline that is practised globally. As the current description notes, chemical engineers play a vital role in finding solutions to twenty-first century challenges: providing clean water, developing medicines, producing food, and generating fuel. The degree develops the foundational engineering sciences: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, and reaction engineering are all essential to chemical engineering practice, alongside the mathem
