Course content

The MPhil and PhD programmes in Chemical Engineering attract students from diverse disciplinary backgrounds such as statistics, maths, electrical engineering, chemistry and physics.

Our research

Research in the School of Engineering is cross-disciplinary. Our strategy is to ensure that our research groups grow. This will provide a balanced portfolio of activities for the future. This will happen in part through MPhil and PhD supervision.

Process intensification is the philosophy that processes can often be made smaller, more efficient and safer using new process technologies and techniques. This results in order of magnitude reductions in the size of process equipment. This leads to substantial capital cost savings and often a reduction in running costs.
