    Department of Chemical and Process Engineering offers Bachelor Degree of Chemical Engineering since it was established in 1984, when the faculty of Engineering was embodied in Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia.<\/p>\n

    Chemical Engineering directly involves in raw feed processing to produce valuable products\u00a0especially if the processing involves phase change, contain energy of the processed materials and\u00a0composites. Chemical, physical and mathematical principles which are the basis of Chemical\u00a0Engineering are used to understand the chemical reaction process in a reactor and transport\u00a0process in a processing unit and separation. Meanwhile the economic and management principles\u00a0are completing the Chemical Engineering Program.<\/p>\n

    Biochemical Engineering that routes from fermentation industry uses Chemical Engineering\u00a0principle in processing the biological and biochemical materials. This field includes\u00a0microorganism breeding, enzyme usage as biological and biochemical process catalyst, and\u00a0design, optimization and process control for large scale biological and biochemical processes and\u00a0also process synthesis of commercial materials such as food, pharmaceutical products and\u00a0industrial biochemical products in general.<\/p>\n

    Starting from the 2015 – 2016 academic session, Chemical Engineering program has been\u00a0restructured where all Biochemical Engineering elements were combined in this program. This\u00a0was practicable in parallel to the accreditation and industrial requirements that require graduates\u00a0to possess vast knowledge covering both fields. It is also in line with the Chemical Engineering\u00a0program that is mostly offered by well-known universities worldwide.<\/p>\n

    Apart from that, educational program was also structured to allow students to obtain vast and\u00a0deep exposure in design experience, industrial work and research. At the end of the third year,\u00a0students need to undergo practical training. Research project is also conducted in semester VII\u00a0and VIII. At the final year, students need to complete design project for the process plant. Strong\u00a0basis as well as practical exposure are believed to produce competent engineers. Curriculum\u00a0structure was thoroughly planned so that the students would gain sufficient knowledge to\u00a0perform Process Plant Design Project in Semester VIII. Students may use computer software\u00a0such as Aspentech\u00ae, iCON\u00ae and Superpro\u00ae to assist them in the Design Project.<\/p>\n
