Key Summary
Introduction
Master in Chemical Engineering
Provide students with proficient knowledge and advanced skills in Chemical Engineering to ensure that future masters (Level II Engineers) will be qualified to pursue professional activity in companies and industries directly or indirectly related to Chemical Engineering, in public or private research and development (R&D) institutions, or to pursue further training in Chemical Engineering, or in related areas, at the level of a 3rd cycle (PhD).
Graduates will be able to integrate work teams that perform functions of:
- Management and operation of industrial equipment and processes to transform raw materials into useful intermediates or essential end products, with environmental impact reduced;
- Design and optimization of equipment and industrial processes, new or existing;
- Innovation and development of new chemical or related products and processes, more efficient and sustainable;
- Maintenance and technical support to customers on equipment, processes and chemicals.
