Bachelor of Engineering Science - Chemical Engineering (EE) (Co-op)

After completing Western Engineering’s Common First Year, students can enrol in the Chemical Engineering program. In their third year of study, they will have the opportunity to choose one of the following options:

This option explores traditional chemical engineering processes and applications. The objective of the program is to combine and integrate the fundamental principles of chemical and biochemical engineering to design commercial processes and plants that make consumer products that are both economical and environmentally friendly. Among the distinguishing features of our program is the emphasis on prevention of pollution at the source before by integrating innovative design principles of physical, chemical and biological processes.

This option includes courses in the fundamentals of chemical engineering, and biochemical and environmental engineering resulting in a synergistic interaction between all three. Students learn about renewable energy, bioenergy and biofuels, plus biotechnology and environmental pollution control. They also develop the necessary skills to design a process using a holistic approach by combining and applying all the required principles of chemical, biochemical and environmental engineering.

NOTE: Please note the English scores listed are minimum requirements. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee admission. Students with low English scores may be admitted to the English BOOST Program, a 9 week training program for conditional admission to their chosen program.
