Course description

Chemical engineering is a branch of Industrial Engineering that aims to apply skills from basic disciplines (mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology) to engineer systems and devices and solve complex problems related to the transformation of raw materials into high value-added products. Thanks to multidisciplinary training, chemical engineers deploy innovative solutions that involve the development and optimal management of industrial processes and plants, ensuring efficiency, safety and environmental sustainability.

 

Undergraduates with a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering (L9 class) or any equivalent foreign degree, fulfilling specific requirements such as, for example, those met by UniCal graduates in Chemical, Food and Environmental Engineering and Chemistry (L9).

Further information is available at: www.dimes.unical.it/content/ammissione-lauree-magistrali

 

The program aims to train professionals in the design, planning, and management of sustainable plants and processes in the manufacturing industry and in the field of industrial research and innovation for the development of processes, products and innovative materials and new technologies.

 

Several sectors of the manufacturing industry, including chemical, food, pharmaceutical, biotech, energy and materials, service and consulting companies, and public and regulatory bodies. In addition, graduates can also work in the field of industrial research and innovation
