Why this course?
The MSc Chemical Technology & Management designed specifically for graduates of related science and engineering disciplines who are working in chemical and process industries, with all the taught content delivered online via our virtual learning environment. The first semester focusses on Chemical Engineering fundamentals, as a refresher for those who have a Chemical Engineering background, and conversion for students of other science and engineering disciplines. Your work based final project will be supervised by one of our world-class academics and will give you the opportunity to apply your learning to a real-world problem that is relevant to your employer.
You may choose to exit the course with a postgraduate diploma after two years, or postgraduate certificate at the end of the first year. You may transfer between MSc Process Technology & Management, MSc Chemical Technology & Management and MSc Advanced Chemical & Process Engineering, provided that you do so before the end of the first semester.
What you'll study
The MSc Process Technology & Management, MSc Chemical Technology & Management and MSc Advanced Chemical and Process Engineering are delivered in parallel. All three courses draw from a pool of Advanced Chemical Engineering and Business/Management, but with a slightly different combination of core and optional classes depending on the programme and the professional requirements of the student. The relationship between these three programmes enables you to transfer between, provided that you do so before the end of the first semester.
The modular approach to this course combines a designed core programme, with an element of choice that allows you to choose subjects relevant to you and your industry.
In your first semester, you'll take the 10-credit Process Design and 20-credit Process Analysis for Chemical Engineering. You’ll subsequently follow a programme of core management/business classes, and core and optional classes related to chemistry, chemical engineering, chemical and process technology.
Students would normally a first-class or second-class honours degree (or international equivalent) in a relevant degree subject. Other qualifications will be considered if they meet the same standard. Please note that due to the large variety of qualifications, a definite answer can only be given once a full application has been received.
