Course summary


Learn about the design and operation of processes for making products such as fuels, medicines, plastics, food and materials for high technology industries. Between years two and three you'll take a paid placement in the chemical engineering industry, putting your academic studies into context and making you even more employable.


Become a skilled chemical engineer with real-word experience, working to solve the myriad challenges facing humanity, from sustainable manufacturing to clean energy.

From food to energy and pharmaceuticals, chemical engineering is embedded in many different sectors, and this course gives you the skills and contacts for a huge range of careers.We emphasise learning through practical experience. That means lab work, projects and open-ended problem-solving. Our state-of-the-art pilot plant gives you the chance to apply what you learn by experimenting with large-scale process equipment. In fact, hands-on experience of using industry standard equipment is integrated throughout the course.And we鈥檒l teach you how to work in an increasingly digitised manufacturing sector, including computer modelling.Along with a fascinating variety of core and optional modules, you鈥檒l have the option to either study abroad for a year or spend a year working in industry, gaining real-world experience and connections.In your third year, you'll take part in a design project to create a real-world process in its entirety. The design projects recreate what chemical engineers do in the real world, bringing together everything you鈥檝e learned into one project and preparing you for your first step into the industry.All that academic study will then be put into context with a year-long industry placement. While placements are not guaranteed and are your responsibility to source, you鈥檒l receive plenty of advice and support from our dedicated Industrial Placement Year team.Links with companies such as Siemens, AstraZeneca and Nestl茅 make Sheffield an excellent choice.
