A Brief Programme Information

Chemical Engineering is bringing Chemistry in the test tube to mass production, at larger scales, through either well-defined or ill-defined geometry. It converts raw materials into marketable products profitably, safely and sustainably by being kind to the environment. A candidate for a chemical engineering degree has to be fluent in the fundamentals of physics, mathematics and chemistry. . The aim of the programme is to produce professionals of graduates in the sectors of oil and gas, manufacturing industries, agricultural produce and other related industries. Facilities include well-equipped library, laboratories and simulation software. Linkage with industry has ensured that the program is relevant and up to date.

Chemical engineers are also known as universal engineers, they are employed in a wide range of industries. Many of our alumni are currently working in sectors of oil and gas, biotechnology (biomass and biofuel), manufacturing and processing, wastewater and waste treatment. They have gone into design, consultancy, certification, plant management, plant operation and sales. The starting basic salary ranges from RM2,500 to RM5,000 per month subject to the company and sector.
