Course Description

Process engineering often involves close collaboration between engineers and scientists from a variety of disciplines. The Chemical Process Engineering MSc at UCL is specifically designed to facilitate this collaboration, and at the same time provides graduates with the advanced training necessary to enter the chemical or biochemical industries. What and how will I learn? The programme covers core chemical engineering subjects alongside a wide range of options. Students choose either a research or an advanced design project. The advanced design project option is aimed at students who have not undertaken a design project during their undergraduate degree and eventually seek to become Chartered Engineers. Degree Structure Students undertake courses to the value of 180 credits. The programme consists of three core courses (45 credits), three optional courses (45 credits) and a research project (90 credits). Core Modules Energy Systems and Sustainability Fluid Particle Systems Advanced Safety and Loss Prevention Dissertationreport All MSc students undertake either a chemical process engineering research project or an advanced design project, which culminates in a project report and oral examination. Options Advanced Process Engineering Advanced Bioreactor Engineering Chemical Reaction Engineering Process Dynamics and Control Transport Processes (III) ONE COURSE CAN BE CHOSEN FROM THE FOLLOWING: New Ventures Business Law for Managers Project Management Further details available on subject website: http:www.ucl.ac.ukchemenggraduatemsc_new.html The programme is delivered through a combination of lectures, tutorials, and individual and group activities. Invited lectures delivered by industrialists provide a professional and social context. Assessment is through written papers, coursework, a report on the research or design project and an oral examination. Why should I study this degree at UCL?
