Chemical Engineering and Chemistry BSc(Hons)
From fuel and clothing to pharmaceuticals and phones, chemistry is the central science that makes our modern everyday lives possible. Chemical engineering delves into how chemical reactions can be scaled up for industrial manufacturing. So, if you like the idea of getting to grips with the core subjects of chemistry while also having the chance to develop an industry-relevant specialism in chemical engineering, this course could be perfect for you.
Designed as an equal split between core chemical engineering and core chemistry, our Chemical Engineering and Chemistry BSc(Hons) course also weaves problem-solving and logical reasoning through all the modules.
We’ll show you how to take an imaginative approach to the subjects, so you’re not just learning the facts, but building the real-world knowledge and mastering the key skills that will help stand you in good stead for your future career.
In our chemical sciences labs you’ll have the opportunity to learn using the kind of instruments used in industry. And with an optional work placement in the UK or abroad in Year 3, you’ll find everything in place to help you gear your study towards boosting your employability.
You’ll be taught by academics in specialist areas of chemistry and chemical engineering who are all educated to doctoral level in their subjects and involved in forward-thinking research. This ensures we keep our courses challenging, exciting and thought-provoking and helps prepare you well to start your own career.
