Master of Science Chemical Engineering

Master of Science Chemical Engineering

Delft University of Technology offers a 2-years taught/research degree programme in Chemical Engineering, fully conducted in English. It trains engineers to handle the entire process of innovative thinking from molecules, reactor, design, and manufacturing. Delft graduates are broadly educated, highly employable and today at work all over the world in a great variety of functions in almost all branches of industry; in management, design, research and development. With fundamental knowledge of the technology, and the associated analytical, creative and social skills, graduates are trained intensively. A solid basis for a rewarding career.

Daily Products are made by Chemical Engineers
Examples are cosmetics, plastics, food, drugs, house ware, parts of your car and computers etc., but also advanced devices for the analysis of your blood or the air around us. All these products and involved processes and many more rely on the expertise of the Chemical Engineer. From the exploration of the raw material, the chemical conversion in reactors, the design of the process units, to a complete production and assembly line of the end product Chemical Engineers are involved. Chemical engineering is an indispensable part of our lives. Throughout history man has used the knowledge of chemical engineering to make life more comfortable.

The World of NanoChemical Engineering: From Molecules to Products
New developments in the field of Chemical Engineering has resulted into more molecular oriented applications and research in the domain of NanoChemical Engineering. In the coming decade this accent will be more pronounced and will develop itself to a new domain  in which the link between molecular scale and product/process scale – including the re-use of the ‘molecules’ will be the focal point.

About 75% of our graduates work in an industrial environment, either here in the Netherlands or elsewhere. You might be employed at Shell, Akzo-Nobel, DSM, Exxon Chemical, Heineken, ING, BASF, Philips, Proctor & Gamble, Unilever, but you might also start working for a consulting firm. And you can always start your own company, of course.
