📚About the Program

Chemical engineering is ideally suited to students with ability in mathematics and science, who enjoy problem-solving and aspire to well-paid, satisfying jobs at home and abroad. Chemical engineering is all about change; creating life-enhancing products and services by applying scientific and mathematical understanding to design, control and improve processes that change raw materials into useful products. Chemical engineers are world leaders in producing medicines, clean energy and water, and other key products in a cost-effective, safe and environmentally friendly manner. Lectures are supplemented by laboratory sessions, project work and team exercises. The course is comprehensive, addressing sectors from heavy chemicals like oil and gas to high-value products like pharmaceuticals, as well as issues like energy efficiency, waste minimisation and environmental protection, all in the context of safe and sustainable operations. Accreditation This degree programme has IChemE accreditation at the “M-standard” issued by the Institution of Chemical Engineers. Qualifications accredited at M-Standard meet the full academic requirements for Chartered Member (MIChemE) and Chartered Engineer (CEng). M-Standard recognises integrated degrees that provide both a solid academic foundation (in chemical engineering) plus advanced chemical engineering knowledge and skills. This IChemE accreditation of the Chemical and Biopharmaceutical Engineering programme to a M-Standard is equivalent to a UK MEng degree which is internationally recognised to this standard. This offers our graduates enhanced qualifications with the potential opportunities to work and compete in a global market. The programme is also accredited by Engineers Ireland, which represents all engineering disciplines in Ireland. Show less
