التفاصيل

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering is a four-year degree program that prepares students to become innovative, ethical, and industry-ready engineers capable of solving real-world challenges in energy, environment, and manufacturing. The program combines strong scientific knowledge with hands-on learning, helping students develop the skills needed to design sustainable processes and technologies that benefit both industry and society.
Students begin with a shared foundation year alongside other engineering majors, offering flexibility before choosing their specialization. The curriculum includes courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, along with laboratory-based learning that builds strong analytical and experimental skills. In the later years, students take core chemical engineering courses, along with electives and specialized labs that allow them to explore advanced topics based on their interests and career goals.
The program emphasizes practical training and includes a final-year capstone project, where students apply their knowledge to address real-world engineering problems. A period of industrial training also ensures students gain exposure to professional work environments. For those who complete the first two years, a Diploma in Engineering is available as an exit option.
Graduates are well-prepared for careers in oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical industries, environmental and water treatment sectors, and research and development, or to pursue advanced studies in engineering and related fields.
