These range from pharmaceuticals, clothing, petrol, paints, food, drinks, and more – all of which are engineered with financial and environmental considerations in mind.

This course is focused to support chemical engineering for the pharmaceuticals/cosmetics/food industry.

In this course, you will use the CDIO (conceive, design, implement, operate) approach developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. CDIO gives you sought-after, hands-on experience that you can deploy in your future career which could include energy management, water, and food security, resource scarcity, climate change, and more.

Chemical engineers may work in a number of different sectors of the industry, for example, in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, design and construction, pulp and paper, petrochemicals, food processing, specialty chemicals, microelectronics, electronic and advanced materials, polymers, business services, biotechnology, and environmental health and safety industries, among many more traditional areas such as pharmaceuticals, fuel and energy and water treatment.

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
