BSc in Chemical Engineering

BSc in Chemical Engineering is a 3 years Bachelor program taught at University of Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options. To successfully obtain BSc in Chemical Engineering from University of Groningen you are required to complete 180 credit hours. After completion of BSc in Chemical Engineering you will be able to further continue for advance studies or start career as Petrochemical Manager.

Chemical engineers work on the production of chemicals at industrial scale. The Bachelor in Chemical Engineering at the University of Groningen will prepare you towards this profession. You will learn to deal with chemical processes on a large scale, to develop new chemical products and to design improved catalysts for the targeted reactions. At the same time you will learn to evaluate and improve the safety and sustainability of chemical processes. Along the way you will be also stimulated to develop your critical thinking skills and your problem-solving attitude.

The fascinating thing about Chemical Engineering is that you will be involved in the development of new products but you will also think about the production process and about the catalyst that is needed to promote the reaction. A Chemical Engineer is concerned with the entire development of a new product or processes, from A to Z. This means you will learn much more than just how chemical reactions work. Chemical Engineers at the University of Groningen, for example, have developed a new process for the production of biodiesels as well as new polymeric products for the oil industry and for high- tech applications.
