BEng Chemical Engineering

The Chemical Engineering BEng course offered by Canterbury Christ Church University is a comprehensive program designed to equip students with necessary skills, knowledge, and understanding in the field of chemical engineering. Spanning three years for full-time and six years for part-time learners, the course binds together a blend of theory reinforced with practical work, real-world case studies, and industry-led projects. Course Content: The course content is carefully structured to provide a solid foundation in mathematics, chemistry, and physics required for chemical engineering. It further delves into the principles of chemical reactors, process control and simulation, separation techniques, risk assessment, and process safety. Students will have opportunities to develop entrepreneurial skills and understand professional issues related to the chemical and process industry. Key Modules: Some of the key modules covered in the course include ThermoFluids, Chemical Reaction Processes, Advanced Materials Science, Mathematics for Engineers, Industrial Processes and Energy Systems, Risk and Safety Management, and Engineering Project.Accreditations: The course has been developed in line with Engineering Council’s UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence (UKSPEC).Future Careers: Upon completion of the course, students will be prepared for a variety of career paths. They can venture into sectors like oil and gas, petrochemicals, food production, pharmaceuticals, energy and water treatment among others. They may take up roles as chemical engineers, process engineers, energy engineers, petroleum engineers, product development scientist, production manager, quality manager or project manager.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
