Bachelor's Programme in Chemical and Process Engineering

• Practical laboratory exercises and industrial-scale applications will teach you about design processes and equipment using modern simulation tools. 
• You will gain experience in managing product development, operational tasks, process safety and quality control. 
• The core of the studies includes common chemical industry processes, especially separation methods and process design. 
• You will dive into the basics of chemistry, natural sciences, and technology and basic chemical and process engineering phenomena. 
• You will learn about chemical reactions, changes in the state of substances, mixing and flows, and the most common analysis and measurement methods in process development. 
• The studies cover the role of chemical and process engineering in green energy production, energy storage, biomass and raw material utilisation, the recovery of metals and minerals, water purification, and food industry processes. 
• The programme builds a strong foundation in natural sciences to create circular economy solutions and ensure the sustainable use of natural resources. 

Most of your studies take place on campus during weekdays. Occasional online courses, as well as courses combining online and on-campus teaching, provide variety and flexibility to your study methods and schedule.

Your studies include

• extensive laboratory work
• theoretical lectures
• exercise sessions
• company visits
• projects
• individual and group assignment

The programme opens doors to career opportunities in entry-level positions in many fields, including the chemical, energy, battery, food, and biotechnology industries. 

Your tasks may include product development in laboratories, factories, or production plants, customer service, or leading research and development work. Most graduates find employment in factories, research centres, or design offices.

Chemical and process engineering is often associated with the chemical industry, but its experts are also needed in many other fields. For example, the paper and pulp, food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries, forensic science, and metal refining rely on expertise and research in the field of chemical and process engineering.
 
An increasing number of chemical and process engineering graduates are pursuing international careers due to high global demand. Experts in the field are needed to tackle challenges related to clean water and waste management. Additionally, there is growing emphasis on sustainable material use and the integration of circular economy principles across industries.
