Studies

Process Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary programme in chemical engineering and computer-based techniques for design, operation and management in process industries. Students acquire skills in managing, planning and steering production operations and technologies, processes and products. The programme focuses on the scientific aspects of designing and running chemical processes as integrated dynamic production systems.

Teaching applies theory to practice and the wide offering gives students the expertise to take on the varied challenges of the field. Students have access to state-of-the-art laboratory equipment, in addition to quality, individual guidance by teachers and researchers with plenty of experience in the field.

The study plan for an individual student may vary depending on student's background. Most students begin with the intermediate module in Process Systems Engineering and continue with an advanced module that provides students with a deeper understanding of the chosen area of specialization.

The thesis is a supervised, independent research project carried out in an industrial company or at a research institution.
