Study FAQ

  • What is Chemical Engineering ?
    Chemical and Petrochemical engineering is the design, development, production, transformation, transportion, operation and management of the industrial processes that turn raw materials into valuable products.
    It is a multi-disciplinary branch of engineering that combines natural and experimental sciences (such as chemistry and physics),
    along with life sciences (such as biology, microbiology and biochemistry) plus mathematics and economics.
  • What is the student's Outcomes ?
    As specified by the accrediting body,
    engineering programs assure that their students will be able to: 
    Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering
    Design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data
    Design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability
    Function on multidisciplinary teams Identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems
    Demonstrate professional and ethical responsibility Communicate effectively
    Use the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context
    Recognize the need for, and an ability to engage in, life-long learning Discuss contemporary issues Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools, necessary for engineering
    practice and Demonstrate knowledge of hazards associated with chemical, biological and
    physical processes and be able to recognize, evaluate, minimize and control these hazards.
  • How to study Chemical and Petrochemical Engineering ?
    Courses in chemical and Petrochemical engineering are made up of lectures, tutorials, computer practice sessions, practical laboratory

    work and both individual and group work. Site visits and classes by industry professionals may also form part of the course.
    Many courses include work placements and a year in industry to equip graduates for tools to succeed in the industry.

    Because chemical engineering is a developing study subject, the curriculum changes and adapts with it.
