The Chemical Engineering, BEng Hons at the University of Greenwich is designed for students who want to master the complex processes of converting raw materials into the essential products used in daily life. You will explore how chemical engineers apply advanced computation, laboratory experimentation, and digital process modelling to solve critical challenges in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, energy, and biotechnology. By integrating modern themes like artificial intelligence, data science, and sustainability, this undergraduate degree ensures you develop the technical expertise required to address global industrial demands. You will graduate with a robust foundation in engineering science and the practical problem-solving skills necessary for a successful career.
Studied full-time on campus over three years, this programme delivers a hands-on learning experience through a combination of core engineering principles, process design, and thermodynamics. You will work alongside academic experts to master separation processes, reactor engineering, and process safety, culminating in an individual design project during your final year. This practical approach, developed in consultation with the IChemE, ensures you are prepared for professional practice in high-growth industries. Upon completion, you will be equipped to pursue diverse career pathways in chemical and process engineering, food and drink production, or environmental sustainability, backed by the University of Greenwich’s industry-focused training.
