The following collaborative specializations are available to students in participating degree programs as listed below:

Overview

The Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry offers graduate research in pure science, engineering fundamentals, and engineering applications. The department attracts a dynamic professorial staff with outstanding international reputations. Many graduate students work closely with industrial partners during their studies. Research is funded by the government and industry, often by means of a consortium of companies. The experience of dealing with real-world problems prepares graduates for successful professional careers.

Research and teaching are the foundations of the department. Research is clustered into eight major categories:

  • Biomolecular and Biomedical Engineering
  • Bioprocess Engineering
  • Chemical and Materials Process Engineering
  • Engineering Informatics
  • Environmental Science and Engineering
  • Pulp and Paper
  • Surface and Interface Engineering
  • Sustainable Energy

Minimum Admission Requirements

  • Applicants are admitted under the General Regulations of the School of Graduate Studies. Applicants must also satisfy the Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry's additional admission requirements stated below.

  • A four-year degree (or equivalent) in engineering or the physical/chemical/biological sciences with a B+ average (or equivalent) in each of the last two years of full-time study.

Completion Requirements

  • Each student should discuss possible research projects with several members of the department before selecting a research area and a supervisor. Students must complete a thesis on a research topic.

  • Coursework. Students must successfully complete a total of 1.5 full-course equivalents [FCEs] (three graduate half courses) as follows:

    • One of these courses must be CHE1102H Research Methods and Project Execution for Graduate Studies in Chemical Engineering, typically completed in Year 1.

All students are asked to register with Climate Positive Energy (CPE) at info@cpe.utoronto.ca, at the beginning of their studies, to receive information about energy-related activities and opportunities on campus. CPE also administers a number of awards and scholarships for which students may be eligible.

 

Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry: Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry MASc, MEng, PhD Courses

An updated course list and schedule is available on the departmental website at the beginning of each session listing the time and room location for each course. Not all courses are given every year.

All students wishing to undertake research and teaching in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry must successfully complete an intensive occupational health and safety training workshop, CHE2222H Safety Workshop, which normally takes place during the week immediately preceding the commencement of graduate courses in the Fall. In each subsequent year of registration, students must take the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System refresher workshop.

MASc students must complete CHE3012Y MASc Research in Year 1, and in subsequent years if recommended by their advisory committee.

PhD students must complete CHE3010Y PhD Research every year.

Students registered in a graduate degree program involving research are required to participate in the non-credit seminar course JDE1000H Ethics in Research during their first or second session of registration.

In addition to the courses below, students may elect to take courses in other engineering or science departments where such courses are deemed relevant to the area of study. These courses require prior approval from the Graduate Coordinator.
