Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology

About this course

Chemical engineering and biotechnology addresses one of the central challenges of the modern world: how to produce the things human societies need, from medicines and materials to food and fuel, in ways that are sustainable, efficient, and safe. Chemical engineering brings together chemistry, physics, biology, and mathematics to design and optimise industrial processes. Biotechnology extends this into living systems, using biological organisms and their components to develop new products and processes. Together, the two fields sit at the frontier of manufacturing, medicine, and environmental science. At the University of Cambridge, this four-year full-time integrated master's programme takes the challenge of sustainable process design as one of its central organising questions. You will study the fundamental principles that govern how processes transform raw materials into products, inc
