Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical) (Honours)
Adelaide University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 04249J
Discover the formula for a dynamic and interesting career with our Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical) (Honours). Learn how we can take raw materials from the world around us and determine how we might turn them into products for daily use. Drawing knowledge and skills from engineering, chemistry, maths and project management, you'll explore the processes that create the products we rely on - from food, medicines and vaccines, to clean drinking water and alternative energy sources. Electives allow you to dive deeper into the areas that interest you - whether that's food engineering, pharmaceutical production, wastewater engineering or electrical and electronic systems. Apply your learning in real industry settings by completing up to 12 weeks of professional placement under the supervision of experienced engineers. Determine how results in the lab can be scaled up for commercial production by undertaking a major plant design and research project. Emerge with the knowledge, expertise and qualifications necessary to practice as a chemical engineer.
