Program Overview
Gain the technical and professional skills to pursue a wide range of careers as a chemical engineer.
Our course introduces you to the core principles and practices of chemical engineering. It develops your professional skills in engineering, mathematics, science, information technology, research, design, communication and management.
Through lectures and practical lab sessions, you’ll learn how to gather and assess data to develop industrial strategies. You’ll explore new technologies and gain a comprehensive understanding of process design. Your studies will give you the confidence to critically apply scientific and engineering knowledge.
You’ll also develop transferable skills such as problem solving, teamwork and resource management. Integrating these with your technical knowledge, you’ll learn how to tackle complex, and often open-ended, engineering problems.
Individual and group projects are a key feature of your studies and a chance for you to develop scientific ideas from the bench scale to process scale. You’ll apply your engineering knowledge to a full chemical process such as designing an anaerobic digester, a water treatment facility for a refugee camp, or a low-carbon ammonia synthesis plant.
Teaching
Our department’s great staff and student community provides a friendly and supportive environment to learn in. We deliver teaching complemented by guest lectures from practitioners to give you a professional and practical perspective on the subject. You’ll learn from expert academic staff whose industrial collaborations, research and entrepreneurial activities feed into our teaching and contribute to your learning experience.
Facilities
Specialist facilities are central to your study experience. Our laboratory facilities range from bench scale to pilot scale and are specially equipped to enhance your education in becoming a chemical engineer. You’ll have access to:
Watch a video tour of our laboratory facilities to see the equipment you could be using as part of your degree.
Careers
Chemical engineering is one of the highest-paid professions in the UK. With a degree from Bath, you can be confident that you’ll graduate with the specific engineering knowledge as well as valuable transferable skills to help start your career. You could take on technical and managerial roles across industry and commercial sectors. For example, you could follow a career in alternative fuels, healthcare industries, water treatment, production of consumables such as foodstuffs and toiletries in the fast moving consumer goods industries, and oil and gas.
