Overview

Isaac Asimov observed “Science can amuse and fascinate us all, but it is engineering that changes the world!” In the past chemical engineering has quietly (or sometimes noisily!) served the material and energy needs of society. But in the 21st century, in the face of global challenges of climate change and fossil fuel depletion, the need is for chemical engineers to change the world by changing the ways in which we meet our needs for food, water, energy and materials. In particular, we need to do this in more joined up ways that produce the right products more cleverly and effectively, understanding the full environmental implications of processing choices, and exploiting interactions for efficiency to give minimum impact and maximum benefit. In the 2025 National Student Survey, we ranked third in country for teaching on my course and assessment and feedback as well as being sixth for organisation and management in this subject area. The top five job titles advertised in the UK for graduate roles associated with courses in this subject area are Process Engineers, Safety Engineers, Plant Engineers, Product Safety Engineers and Chemical Process Engineers.* *Lightcast data extracted from Graduate Career Explorer – job postings from Dec 2023 to Nov 2024 showing jobs advertised associated with a selection of relevant graduates.
