Course summary


This course is about the design and operation of processes for making products such as fuels, medicines, plastics, food and materials for high technology industries. You'll also learn about the production and use of energy. Years one to three are the same as for the BEng (H810). Year four allows further specialisation and study with the emphasis on an individual research project which may be carried out in association with industry.


From clean energy and sustainable manufacturing to personalised pharmaceuticals – humanity’s future depends on the specialist skills of chemical engineers.

Chemical engineering is embedded in so many different sectors, and a Chemical Engineering MEng from Sheffield sets you on the path to become a highly sought-after specialist.Your learning will revolve around practical experience: lab work, projects and open-ended problem-solving of the kind you will find the real world. In The Diamond’s state-of-the-art pilot plant, you’ll apply what you learn by experimenting with large-scale processes. In fact, hands-on experience of using industry-standard equipment is integrated throughout the course, along with digital manufacturing skills, including computer modelling.Along with a fascinating variety of core and optional modules, you’ll have the chance to choose a specialism eg energy, pharmaceutical or biological engineering. And in your third year, you'll take part in a process design project, bringing together your learning to create a real-world process in its entirety. In your fourth year, you’ll undertake an independent research project on genuinely cutting edge research in a field of your choice.
