DurationA four-year undergraduate chemical engineering degree is offered which prepares graduates for careers in the chemical, metallurgical, biotechnical and process industries.
The degree focuses on the development of technical expertise, problem-solving, teamwork and communication skills, and is accredited by the Engineering Council of South Africa.
There is an opportunity to stream the degree programme with a strong flavour in either minerals processing, bioprocess engineering, catalytic processing, process modelling, or environmental process engineering.
Practical training in the operation of laboratory and pilot scale equipment is given during the second and third years, while the fourth-year research project emphasises chemical engineering fundamentals. Chemical Engineering Design is addressed in all years of study, culminating in an integrated plant design in the final year.
UCT is an inclusive and engaged research-intensive African university that inspires creativity through outstanding achievements in learning, discovery and citizenship; enhancing the lives of its students and staff, advancing a more equitable and sustainable social order and influencing the global higher education landscape.
Chemical Engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with chemical production and the manufacture of products through chemical processes.
Chemical Engineering N1 - N6 is an area of engineering that applies physical sciences (physics and chemistry), life sciences (microbiology and biochemistry), together with applied mathematics and economics to produce, transform, transport, and properly use chemicals, materials, and energy.
Understanding the units and dimensions of the British, SI and American engineering systems. Converting one set of units to another. Defining a mole and converting from moles to mass and the reverse for any chemical compound, given the molecular weight.
The aim of the course is to provide excellent theorical as well as practical chemical engineering knowledge and skills, relevant to needs of the chemical industry and society at large, graduates of this programme will have the competences to apply engineering skills to chemical engineering problems
The department aims to become a Chemical Engineering School of Excellence with comprehensive undergraduate teaching program, and a vibrant post-graduate research program focusing on developing technologies for addressing South Africa’s needs.
