艾萨克·阿西莫夫（Isaac Asimov）指出：“科学可以使我们所有人都着迷，并使我们着迷，但工程改变了世界。”过去，化学工程悄悄地（有时是喧闹地）满足了社会的物质和能源需求。但是在21世纪，面对气候变化和化石燃料枯竭的全球挑战，化学工程师需要通过改变我们满足食物，水，能源和材料需求的方式来改变世界。特别是，我们需要以更多的协作方式来做到这一点，以便更聪明，更有效地生产出合适的产品，了解加工选择对环境的全面影响，并利用相互作用提高效率，以最大程度地减少影响和最大收益。化学工程可以被认为是应用科学中应用最
In the past chemical engineering has quietly (or sometimes noisily) served the material and energy needs of society. But in the 21st century, in the face of global challenges of climate change and fossil fuel depletion, the need is for chemical engineers to change the world by changing the ways in which we meet our needs for food, water, energy and materials. In particular, we need to do this in more joined up ways that produce the right products more cleverly and effectively, understanding the full environmental implications of processing choices, and exploiting interactions for efficiency to give minimum impact and maximum benefit.<br><br>This course is accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and is reviewed on a regular basis.<br>Chemical engineering can be viewed as the most applied of the applied sciences with opportunities to make a difference in the world. Chemical engineers transform the visions of chemists and biochemists into industrial-scale reality, to make the benefits of new products and processes available to the world.<br>Our Chemical Engineering MEng builds on the BEng(Hons) course that provides in-depth coverage of modern, industry-relevant chemical engineering material from the fundamentals through to process design.<br>There is a strong emphasis on chemistry in the context of chemical engineering, on systems thinking and on practical skills, as well as on nurturing transferable and employability skills.<br><br>5 years inc placement
