Program details

Overview

The Master of Engineering (MEng) in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering at Western University is a course-based graduate degree combining coursework with an optional project, or coursework only, aimed at practising engineers and new graduates who want to deepen their technical knowledge. Full-time study runs three terms; a part-time route is also available. Students select courses aligned with their career interests across chemical and biochemical engineering, with departmental research and course strengths spanning biomaterials and biochemical engineering, environmental and green engineering, food processing, particle technology and fluidization, process control and safety, and reaction and process systems engineering. The program is administered by the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering within the Faculty of Engineering. It suits engineers seeking to build on an existing four-year engineering degree with applied, career-relevant graduate coursework rather than a thesis-based research degree.
