This Advanced Chemical Engineering with Formulation programme focuses on advanced chemical engineering topics that inform the modern process engineering industry. The three major research areas – formulation engineering, energy, and healthcare technology – guide the programme.
The school of Chemical Engineering at the University of Birmingham focuses on research in three areas, answering three major questions of global importance:
- Formulation Engineering – How can we develop and produce formulated products such as food or pharmaceuticals with novel properties in a sustainable manner?
- Healthcare Technology – How can we maintain a healthy aging population?
- Energy – How can we reshape energy supply and storage in a sustainable way?
This programme focuses on exploring the key aspects of chemical engineering that we can use to answer these three questions, with a focus on formulation engineering.
Core modules will give students an advanced understanding of advanced chemical engineering principles and concepts relevant to multiple application areas. The wide range of optional modules will allow students to develop expertise in specialist areas.
