Discipline description
According to the general definition used in the Western countries and at present also in Poland, the contemporary chemical engineering encompasses a number of scientific areas combining elements of fundamentals of chemistry and applied chemistry, chemical technology, as well as chemical and process engineering. Within its scope, we will find both the basic research on elementary reactions and their mechanisms and pilot endeavours to apply processes at the laboratory level, as well as activities related to increasing the scale of the chemical process and, last but not least, implementation problems.
A person with the academic degree of doctor in the discipline of Chemical Engineering is a universal specialist who may work as a production and / or analytics technologist or as a scientist in organisations doing research in both basic and applied sciences.
Who may apply?
The person eligible for admission to study in this discipline is first of all a graduate of programmes related to chemistry (chemistry, chemical technology, chemical engineering, process engineering), biotechnology or materials engineering and materials science.
