WHAT WE OFFER

BACHELOR OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING WITH HONOURS

Bachelor of Chemical Engineering with Honours is a four-year course, which is accredited by Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC). Chemical Engineering focuses on the application of engineering principles to the design, construction and operation of industrial processing plants. Apart from basic chemical engineering knowledge, this programme is inclined to prepare the students toward specific engineering expertise in energy and natural resources. With such, the students have the options to select preferred elective courses in their final year. The programme has been designed as such that the graduates from this programme can embark their careers not limited to chemical engineering processing industry such as those dealing with petrochemicals, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, food processing and other related industries only.

The job involves supervision of plant operation and maintenance, troubleshooting operational problems related to process, and undertaking plant modification work for process operability and safety improvement. The graduates may also work in other industries related to power generation, environmental engineering and sustainability to a more specific research career in academic institutions. The programme was designed to include contributions from industrial panels allowing students to relate the theory and practicality of knowledge learnt.

Moreover, students have opportunity to experience technical and hands on skill through research in final year project, laboratory experiments and also the 12 weeks of industrial training internship program. Throughout the programme, students gain soft skills such as leadership, teamwork and communication skills, preparing students for their career development. Looking forward to meet you joining us in Department of Chemical Engineering and Energy.
