Chemical Engineering

Overview

The Chemical Engineering programme of Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) provides students with the knowledge, insights and skills they need to become independent and responsible researchers or engineers in this field. The programme operates hand in hand with the university’s Chemical Engineering research groups and for decades has been delivering graduates who are in high demand by the chemical industry and academia. Chemical Engineering at Delft aims for the highest quality standards in teaching and research and has a rich heritage spanning 125 years. The programme places a strong emphasis on innovative thinking and stresses multidisciplinary problem-solving using a systematic approach, incorporating considerations of sustainability, economics and social welfare into the analytical process.

What you will learn

MSc Chemical Engineering addresses a wide range of subjects at all levels: molecular science, including the emerging field of nanochemical engineering, the design and analysis of chemical reactors and the application of chemical engineering in manufacturing processes with a strong emphasis on innovative thinking. The programme stresses a systematic approach to solving multidisciplinary problems, in which sustainability, economics and social welfare are important aspects.

The fundamental goal of the programme is to provide students with both a breadth and a depth of knowledge to prepare them for careers in research or to work in industry at either the design or the operational level.
