Begin your journey towards a challenging yet rewarding career in chemical engineering by studying at the subject's birthplace: Manchester. In the second year you will learn a new language, preparing you for an exciting third year abroad - studying in either France, Germany or Spain.
The full foreign language course will include spoken language, grammar and some technical vocabulary. During your year abroad you will attend lectures and tutorials, participate in group work, write reports and take exams in the local language. You will also undertake a research project during your third year that will be assessed as part of your year abroad.
Across the four-year degree you will not only learn the fundamentals of this key subject; you will also have the opportunity to specialise in advanced areas, covering the key themes of modelling and energy. In fourth year you will undertake an open-ended team project to design a complete production process, with previous examples including the sustainable production of chemicals such as propylene oxide and ethylene glycol from waste. Our design teams have won more IChemE Macnab-Lacey Prize for their efforts than any other university.
At Manchester, all of our programmes are accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE), meaning your education will equip you to graduate with an industrially approved degree. There will be emphasis on the technical aspects of chemical engineering, and these revolve around managing the behaviour of materials and chemical reactions, as well as predicting and manipulating compositions, flows, temperatures, and pressures of solids, liquids and gases.
