What is Chemical Engineering?<\/h4><\/div>

Chemical Engineering involves the development of sustainable and safe Processes to convert raw materials into value-added Products. In a word, \u201cTransformation\u201d!<\/strong> Thus, a Chemical Engineer is devoted to the design, development, sizing, improvement, application and operation of Processes (chemical, physical or biological) that allow the desired Products to be obtained.<\/p>\n<\/div>

GENERIC OBJECTIVES
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The main objective of the Master\u2019s Degree in Chemical Engineering (M.EQ) is to train professionals in the field of Chemical Engineering or related areas with the highest quality standard, having in mind professional careers in the context of either industrial practice or research activities, among many others.<\/p>\n

Emphasizing a practical engineering culture together with project activity, the syllabus offers students the possibility of acquiring specific competences in one of the following areas (specialisations): i) Processes and Products; ii) Energy; iii) Biotechnology; iv) Environment.<\/p>\n<\/div>

LEARNING OUTCOMES<\/span><\/p>\n

The Master\u2019s Degree in Chemical Engineering intends to empower students with the following competences:<\/p>\n

+ To understand the nature and dimension of manufacturing industries related to Chemical Engineering.<\/p>\n

+ The ability to apply physical, chemical and biological concepts in analysis processes.<\/p>\n

+ The ability to systematically organize information and solve fundamental and complex problems in Chemical Engineering and related areas.<\/p>\n

+ The ability to use the available methods for conception, design, implementation and operation of systems in industrial and social contexts, with all the inherent implications.<\/p>\n<\/div>

ACCREDITATION<\/span>
\nThis programme is accredited by the Higher Education Assessment and Accreditation Agency (A3ES).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

DIPLOMA<\/span>
\nThe Master in Chemical Engineering originates from the split of the previous Integrated Master in Chemical Engineering (MIEQ) of FEUP into two independent study cycles, in order to comply with article 19 of Decree-Law No. 65\/2018 of 16th August, being the M.EQ the 2nd of those cycles. M.EQ is structured in 4 semesters, totalizing 120 ECTS, culminating in the completion of a Dissertation, which takes place in the last semester of the study plan.<\/p>\n

The cycle of studies is composed by:<\/p>\n

+ a master\u2019s degree programme, not conferring a degree, consisting of an organized set of courses corresponding to 90 ECTS. It confers a diploma of master programme (non-degree) in Chemical Engineering in one of the 4 specializations: i) Process & Product, ii) Energy, iii) Biotechnology and iv) Environment. The possibility of being awarded the non-degree diploma will only occur in the 2nd year.<\/p>\n

+ A scientific dissertation, original and specifically written for this purpose, corresponding to 30 of the total of 120 ECTS of the study cycle; the defence in public examination of the dissertation will allow the awarding of the Master degree in Chemical Engineering in one of the 4 specialisations: i) Process & Product, ii) Energy, iii) Biotechnology and iv) Environment.<\/p>\n

Students may perform a mobility semester, in the 2nd semester of the 1st year or in the 1st semester of the 2nd year, in a higher education institution with which an exchange agreement exists. It is also possible to perform an additional semester in mobility for the completion of the dissertation, with the defence taking place at FEUP.<\/p>\n

The degree will be awarded by FEUP.<\/p>\n<\/div>
