Overview

The courses at MIT comprise the required core curriculum, two additional required courses, and electives. This core curriculum is required of all chemical engineering graduate students irrespective of their degree objective. The electives, however, may be chosen from outside the Department to support particular interests.

The Chemical Engineering Practice program of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) differs from a conventional M.S. degree because there is no research thesis requirement. For this, we substitute the intensive industrial experience of the Practice School. The industrial exposure, varied technical challenges, and extensive communications requirements, when combined with the MIT coursework, leads to a high degree of professional advancement.

The degree requires that you complete:

the core curriculum in chemical engineering

Courses in systems engineering and applied chemistry

Practice School requirements, including a one-semester industrial internship

Programme Structure

Courses include:

Numerical Methods
Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics

Analysis of Transport Phenomena

Chemical Reactor Engineering
