Course summary

Demand is growing for chemical engineers that can design sustainable technologies and processes. On this degree you’ll gain sought-after skills in sustainable chemical engineering and work towards improving our environment. You’ll also complete a paid industrial placement year as part of the degree, which adds an extra year to your studies. Your placement could be in an industry such as energy systems, pharmaceutical, food or emerging technologies. You’ll develop knowledge and skills to prepare you for the workplace, and remain enrolled as a student during the year, with access to all the University’s support services.Ranked First in the Russell Group for course satisfaction and teaching satisfaction by the 2023 Guardian University Guide, you’ll work in fantastic facilities that include chemical engineering laboratories, a dedicated chemical engineering computer suite and a virtual control room, where you’ll learn to run a simulation of a real chemical plant, using the same simulations used by industry to train their staff.By studying across the Schools of Engineering and Chemistry you’ll be able to understand the chemistry behind a particular problem, and have the practical ability to engineer and design innovative and sustainable solutions. You’ll also have access to our 10,000m2 of Engineering facilities and Chemistry laboratories which were refurbished in 2019.Design is embedded throughout the degree. You’ll take part in a challenging group design project, bringing together all of your theoretical knowledge and practical skills to create a design solution – whether that’s a simulation, a report to meet a brief or even building part of a chemical engineering plant.You’ll receive the training you need to enjoy a rewarding career when you graduate; chemical engineering is one of the most stable and lucrative employment sectors in the UK.
