Overview

Moreover, the Chemical and Energy Engineering programme from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology enables students to hone their understanding of and expertise in product development, material sciences, energy conversion and utilization, renewable energies, power generation, carbon neutrality, and sustainable development.

The programme not only offers advanced chemical and energy engineering courses for students, but also enables them to take electives from other related programmes to prepare chemical and energy engineers to lead and take up senior positions.

Learning Outcomes

• Apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering to the solution of chemical and energy engineering problems.

• Design and conduct experiments, analyze, interpret data and synthesize valid conclusions.

• Design a system, component, or process, and synthesize solutions to achieve desired needs.

• Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice with appropriate considerations for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental constraints.

• Communicate clearly and concisely both in writing and orally.

• Design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.

• Apply critical thinking through independent thought and informed judgement, and develop creative and innovative solutions.

Upon completion of this programme, graduates could continue with postgraduate programmes or work in chemical firms, electric vehicle manufacturers, renewable energy companies, etc.
