enable students to solve problems within an engineering type of environment
provide students with business and management skills
provide training in research

Key facts:

Successful students should gain:

Advanced knowledge of fundamental areas of chemical engineering.
An understanding of how discoveries and other ideas can be exploited effectively, including new company spin-outs, reorganisation of existing company structures, technology licensing, etc., by undertaking a series of business-based modules to include topics such as financing and marketing.
The capacity to work individually and in a team, under time constraints, to produce workable solutions to engineering problems. Key skills learned will be time management, interaction with colleagues, obtaining technical and financial information, defining optimal outcomes, and communicating results.
The ability to define, organise, and undertake a research project within a specified period of time and to report it in writing and by seminar in an acceptable manner. The project might involve business-related as well as chemical engineering research and may involve industrial collaboration. This will introduce the student to the practical problems of undertaking research.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Modules are taught by a combination of formal lectures, demonstrations, discussion classes and example problems. The taught material enhances basic knowledge on chemical engineering fundamentals, as well as offering experience of other science- and business-based disciplines. The courses are assessed by both unseen examination and written coursework.
