博士学位是基于论文的课程，要求学生除撰写和捍卫论文外，还必须完成课程。硕士学位后，名义上四年（12个学期）。博士 该课程包括学士学位以外的七门一学期研究生课程或硕士学位课程以外的三门课程，以及涉及论文的更广泛的研究课程。论文必须是对化学工程的原创性贡献，还必须在口试中得到辩护。还要求候选人考取博士学位。全面考试，旨在测试知识的广度以及从候选人研究领域的外围综合思想的能力。监督委员会确定候选人何时准备写论文，然后确定陈述的质量是否令人满意。学生必须在期末口试中为论文辩护。
This program will provide students with knowledge in a chosen area of specialty beyond the MASc degree through a research-intensive program. Students will take courses to enhance technical understanding and complete a doctoral dissertation under the supervision of a professor. Students are expected to make a novel and world-class contribution to the body of scientific knowledge, participate in the academic process, and disseminate their discoveries through scholarly publications.Areas of ResearchBiomaterials & bioprocessing: drug delivery, tissue engineering, biocompatible surfaces, bio-separations, membranes, bioreactors, pharmaceutical processingPolymer science and engineering: polymer synthesis and characterization, polymer reaction engineering, polymer and particulate processing, paper chemistry, nanotechnology, interfacial engineeringProcess system engineering and control: process systems design, process control, optimization, supply chain planning and scheduling, data mining, multivariate statistical methodsMaterials and process modelling computation: molecular modelling, computational fluid dynamics, energy systems, alternatives fuelsenergy, waste water treatment, life cycle analyses
