Why study Chemical and Environmental Engineering?
Graduates of Chemical & Environmental engineering will be equipped to work effectively across technical, research and strategic roles to respond to present and future challenges associated with sustainably meeting the needs of the national and global population. Chemical & Environmental engineers will be accredited chemical engineers, with additional technical skills in the areas of waste management and resource recovery, water treatment and sustainable energy systems. They will have the skills and knowledge required to implement cleaner production, and to rigorously assess the long-term impacts of proposed products, processes and developments. This includes an understanding of key global challenges, the causes of these problems and barriers to the uptake of technical solutions. Chemical & Environmental engineers will be able to apply, assess and communicate a wide range of approaches to developing sustainable systems, including indicators of sustainability and different methods of community consultation and engagement. They will have a solid grounding in modelling and in analytical measurement in laboratory and field/industrial applications, including basic sampling design and data analysis.
