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:

1. Biomolecular and Biomedical Engineering

2. Bioprocess Engineering

3. Chemical and Materials Process Engineering

4. Engineering Informatics

5. Environmental Science and Engineering
