Chemical Engineering MEng

**Course summary**• Gain a strong engineering background alongside building additional skills in leadership and management.• Undertake a development project where you apply research methods, originality and experience in dealing with new concepts and/or applications.• Learn to identify the limitations of current practice, and recognise the potential impact of new developments.Using modern lab equipment to practice fundamental chemical engineering principles, undertaking project work, real life research and chemical process plant design, you will graduate with the right skills and experience needed to succeed professionally in the engineering industry.There is an emphasis on practical work as part of this course. Sessions in laboratories will help you see and feel the principles taught in the classroom. Classroom teaching is delivered by expert academics who also work in industry and are involved with leading scientific research.You learn through• lectures• tutorials• lab sessions• computer simulations• projects• guest lectures• group work• independent research• simulated experiments**Applied learning****Work placements**You will have the opportunity to arrange a year-long work placement in between your second and third years. This gives you a real-world experience to prepare you for your future career.**Live projects**You're encouraged to gain practical experience through reverse engineering projects and cover other important associated subjects, such as the health and safety requirements of the industry. You will work on group and individual projects to develop your skills in applying your knowledge to chemical engineering problems.**Support**We offer plenty of support outside the classroom by allocating you an academic tutor and through organising drop-in sessions where you can meet academics without appointment for a variety of support relating to your assignments, projects, exams, maths, English, statistics, computing and programming so no one is left behind.
