Overview

This comprises advanced control and production scheduling methods and the analysis and description of experimental data. Process Systems Engineering has a great demand in the market as it enables a chemical engineer to acquire all the knowledge necessary not just for designing a chemical plant but also for its simulation and optimization.

Features

Process Systems Engineering students at TU Dortmund University students will not be studying the core chemical engineering subjects like thermodynamics, mass transfer or heat transfer etc. once again. Instead students will have the opportunity to learn subjects like Process Control, Industrial Automation etc. which will enable them to be at par with the electronics involved in a chemical plant.

Also, students will have the opportunity to learn to operate softwares like Aspen, GProms etc. At this juncture it is important that students revise their chemical engineering knowledge so that they can build upon it and get the maximum out of the course.

Students learn in a truly international class and work together with fellows from other countries, cultures and backgrounds. Joint work in tutorials, labs and project groups will broaden the horizon and enable to interact respectfully in international teams and organisations.
