Solve global challenges
Chemical engineers come up with the best ways to convert raw matter—like minerals or oils—into products we can use. They design renewable energy solutions, new and improved medicines, chemical plants, cosmetics and food factories.
The University of Adelaide is the only South Australian university in the world’s top 50 for Computer Science and Engineering.
What will you do
Our Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)(Chemical) is interactive from the very first year. You’ll work with award-winning and industry-connected researchers and teachers as you:
use knowledge and skills from engineering, chemistry, maths and biology to produce chemicals, fuel, drugs, and food
learn how results in the lab scale up for commercial production
undertake projects with external groups such as Engineers Without Borders
benefit from tours, projects, and placements with companies like PepsiCo, Smiths Crisps, Jurlique, and BHP
complete an eight-week practical experience.
Where could it take you
You could come up with better ways to control air pollution or turn saltwater into fresh water. You might work alongside craft beer brewers. Perhaps you’ll mass-produce a biodegradable version of plastic or move into the exciting world of tissue engineering.
