Postgraduate Diploma - Advanced Chemical Engineering with Energy Masters

This Advanced Chemical Engineering with Energy Masters programme focuses on advanced chemical engineering topics that inform the modern process engineering industry. The three major research areas – energy, formulation engineering, and healthcare technology – guide the programme, with a focus on energy.

Chemical engineering is dynamic and evolving, and today extends far beyond its roots in oil and gas processing. It provides solutions to problems facing many sectors, such as energy supply and storage, food, fast-moving consumer goods, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare.

The school of Chemical Engineering at the University of Birmingham focuses on research in three areas, answering three major questions of global importance:

This programme focuses on exploring the key aspects of chemical engineering that students can use to answer these three questions, with a focus on the production, distribution, storage and use of energy.

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, with a focus on energy.
