Chemical engineering is the discipline that sustains and improves a range of industries as diverse as food processing, petrochemicals, ceramics, petroleum refining, primary metals, plastics, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, glass, and specialty chemicals.
- The Master of Engineering comprises a foundation year and an advanced studies year. The foundation year consists of a set of courses designed to ensure that students acquire a level of expertise in the relevant specialization. The program gives students the opportunity to study technical courses at an advanced level and the opportunity to engage in a research project.
- An exit path will be available for students completing only the foundation year after they satisfy a set requirement in the relevant discipline. In this case, a graduate diploma will be awarded.
- To remain in this program, students must maintain a high-grade point average (GPA) throughout their candidature.
