Course Overview - Chemical Engineering Meng (Hon)
Chemical engineers are innovators who can be found at the leading edge of new and emerging technologies such as:
* nanotechnology
* carbon capture
* renewable energy
They help make the world a better place by using scientific principles to design and operate clean, safe and sustainable processes that transform materials and help tackle tomorrow’s grand challenges.
They develop, design and produce many of the products and materials that underpin or enhance our everyday lives; from the water we drink and the gas that pow...
