Chemical Engineering (Study Abroad) : BEng Hons
Lancaster UniversityLancaster, UK
Course overview
Chemical engineers design, develop and validate the processes behind today’s most useful materials and products. Think electric car batteries, antibiotics, biodegradable plastics and even food production. They are critical to sustainable solutions, global innovation and economic growth.
Chemical Engineers frequently work across teams of engineers from other branches of the discipline, so it’s crucial to have a broad understanding of general engineering and its applications. At Lancaster, your first year is dedicated to exactly this, and you’ll share this experience with all our School of Engineering students, regardless of their specialisation. We think this makes you a well-rounded graduate, with excellent teamwork and communications skills, prepared for a career pioneering the materials, technologies and processes of the future.
