Chemical Engineering (with Foundation Year)

This BEng (Hons) Chemical Engineering route begins with a foundation year, giving extra preparation for learners who lack the grades to join year one of a degree. The subject covers sustainable chemical and process engineering from the outset. You learn to develop processes that cut harmful emissions, raise energy efficiency and make better use of renewable resources. The course includes accredited content and an integrated masters pathway, and industry links provide practical experience through focused projects. Graduates are prepared for careers in the chemical and process sectors, where sustainable engineering skills are valued. The route is studied full-time, with work placement options available alongside the main curriculum. The course suits learners who want a focused, practical route into this field. Teaching is organised around modules that build skills step by step.
