MSc in Chemical Engineering and Management

This programme is aimed at graduate engineers, looking to broaden their knowledge of management in the context of Chemical Engineering. Semester 1, which is common with all the Business and Management MSc programmes, aims at providing a solid grounding in Business and Management theory with special consideration of its application in the manufacture and engineering sector. Semester 2 courses aim to improve the student's depth of knowledge in chemical engineering subjects that are important to chemical process plant management. The summer session is for project work, aimed at practical application and consolidation of earlier courses and enhancing the candidate's ability to do independent work and present results in the most appropriate form.

The course is split into two semesters and a summer session, which account for 60 credits each. Within the first two semesters compulsory desalination and design engineering courses are supplemented by a number of mechanical engineering options as shown in the table below. The summer session is devoted to a chemical engineering related project.
