Chemical Engineering

About this course

Chemical engineering is the branch of engineering concerned with the design and operation of processes that transform raw materials into useful products through physical, chemical, and biological means. From the production of fuels, polymers, and pharmaceuticals to the treatment of water, the processing of food, and the development of new energy technologies, chemical engineers apply the principles of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to design safe, efficient, and sustainable industrial processes at scales ranging from laboratory bench to full production plant. At the University of Manchester, this four-year full-time programme begins with a foundation year that provides additional scientific and mathematical preparation before the main engineering curriculum, making it accessible to students whose prior qualifications would benefit from consolidation. In the core degree years, you w
