BEng Chemical Engineering

The Chemical Engineering BEng program at the University of Birmingham is a comprehensive educational journey that links the scientific theories of chemical and physical processes with practical, real-world applications. It provides a solid foundation in all aspects of chemical engineering and offers the opportunity to specialize in areas such as energy, environment, biomedical engineering, and more.Course Content: The curriculum introduces you to core principles in mathematics, chemistry, and physics in the first year. The curriculum is then expanded in the second and third years to include advanced topics related to chemical engineering processes, reaction engineering, separation processes, heat transfer, and process control. The course also includes industrial placements in the final year to provide practical, hands-on experience.Key Modules: The course includes key modules such as Process Design Principles, Foundations of Chemical Engineering, Thermodynamics, and Kinetics, Transport Phenomena, Applied Mathematics, Chemical Reaction Engineering, and Chemical Engineering Laboratory.Accreditations: The program is accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) under license from the UK regulator, the Engineering Council.Future Careers: Graduates from this program often go on to work in a variety of sectors including chemical and related industries, design and contracting, oil and petrochemicals, paper and pulp, pharmaceuticals, environmental health and safety industries, investment banking, management, and scientific research.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
