Any first year students already at cambridge who are interested in chemical engineering should read the information for first year undergraduates. Key information set kis data is only gathered for undergraduate full time courses. There are a number of reasons why this course does not have kis data associated with it. For example, it may be a franchise course run at a partner college or a course designed for continuing professional development.

Chemical engineering covers the development, design and operation of processes in which materials undergo chemical reactions and/or physical changes to produce products ranging from petrol to plastics, medicines to food and drink. It is an industry that is firmly focused on meeting the challenges of tomorrow using the earth's resources as efficiently as possible to provide for the needs of future generations. Chemical engineers are involved at every stage from researching and testing new products through to making them commercially viable, helping them to be implemented on an industrial scale and then modifying and improving them once they are in operation.

This course builds on your science knowledge base to cover advanced topics, such as, reactor design, separation processes, and computer modelling and control of processes. During the course you'll also learn project management skills and how these scientific and managerial skills apply in business organisations. As a beng programme, this course encourages you to acquire a deeper understanding of the essential facts, concepts, theories and principles of chemical engineering and its underpinning science and mathematics. member of rolls royce utc since its formation in1991 research interests: development and experimental validation of cfd methods for complex turbulent flows ndash in particular large eddy simulation applied to aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, two phase flow, and heat transfer of gas turbine fuel injectors and combustion systems and high mach number exhaust nozzle propulsion systems.

Grossmann’s research interests are in the areas of process synthesis, energy integration, process flexibility, planning and scheduling of batch and continuous processes, supply chain optimization, and mixed integer and logic based optimization. He has authored more than 300 papers, and co authored the textbook systematic methods of chemical process design. %%img src he was manufacturing, supply and distribution director for shell oceania based in australia and also held director positions with three other oil sector companies at that time. From 1997 19 he was ceo of the north west shelf venture, australia's largest natural resources project covering offshore oil and gas exploration and production and onshore lng production. From 19 to 2004 andrew was managing director and ceo of nigeria lng ltd and vice president of bonny gas transport, nlng's shipping company: he was also president of the nigeria gas association from 2003 to 2004. From 2005 until 2009 andrew was executive vice president gas and projects in shell international in the hague with responsibility for r amp d, technical and operational aspects of all shell's gas activities, including coal gasification, gtl, lng and gas processing, as well as all project activities for refining, chemicals and midstream gas.

In 2006 andrew was made an officer of the order of the british empire obe by the uk government for services to british business and sustainable development in nigeria. In 2008 he was elected a fellow of the royal academy of engineering and is also a fellow of the institution of chemical engineers and a chartered engineer. Current directorships include woodside energy ltd australia's largest publicly traded oil and gas company , velocys plc, seven energy international chairman nigerian oil and gas company , hoegh lng holdings, and hlng partners inc. Andrew completed his undergraduate and phd studies at the university of glasgow in scotland. %%img src in 1986 geoff moved to the oil and gas industry with schlumberger, where he led research in oilfield fluids engineering for well construction, reservoir stimulation and production enhancement. He held a number of senior technical and research management positions in cambridge and paris, most recently as a research director. He rejoined imperial college in september 2005 as professor of energy engineering and his current research covers clean and efficient fossil fuel production with particular emphasis on carbon dioxide mitigation processes, recovery of non conventional hydrocarbons including methane hydrate production and energy related reactor engineering.

Geoff is a fellow of the institution of chemical engineers, the royal society of chemistry and the energy institute. He was awarded the hutchison medal by the institution of chemical engineers in 1998 and served as president of the british society of rheology from 2002 2005. He was awarded the icheme chemical engineering envoy award for 2010 for his media work explaining the engineering issues involved in the gulf of mexico oil spill.

In 2011 he chaired the independent review of the uk offshore oil amp gas regulatory regime 'the maitland report' and in 2012 received the rideal lecture award from the royal society of chemistry. %%img src before moving to surrey he was dean of engineering at the university of warwick and for 10 years the head of chemical engineering at the university of birmingham, where he established the uk's first research centre in formulation engineering awarded a queen's anniversary prize in 2011 and co founded the positron imaging centre, which has pioneered the use of positron emitting radioactive tracers in engineering studies.
