COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Science (M.S.) in Chemical Engineering is a graduate program designed to provide advanced knowledge and research training in a wide range of chemical and biological engineering fields. This program prepares students to solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics to real-world systems. It is strongly research-oriented and offers opportunities for specialization in multiple cutting-edge areas of science and engineering.The areas of study within this program are highly diverse and interdisciplinary. Students may focus on biochemical engineering, biomedical engineering, and bioengineering-related fields such as biosensors, bioanalytical devices, and cell and tissue engineering. These areas emphasize the application of chemical engineering principles to biological systems and medical technologies. Another major focus includes biofuels and biorefining, which supports the development of sustainable energy solutions, as well as environmental biotechnology and environmental engineering, which address pollution control, bioremediation, and contaminant transport in natural systems.In addition, the program covers advanced materials and nanotechnology, including semiconductor processing, chemical vapor deposition, polymer materials, nanostructured materials, and thin films. These areas are important for developing next-generation electronics, coatings, and high-performance materials. Students may also engage in research involving molecular simulation, membrane separations, permeable media, and protein engineering, which are essential for understanding and designing complex chemical and biological systems at the molecular level.Emerging fields such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, synthetic and systems biology, metabolic engineering, and magnetic resonance imaging further expand the program’s interdisciplinary scope. These research areas integrate engineering with modern biological sciences and data-driven approaches to study and manipulate living systems.Overall, the M.S. in Chemical Engineering provides students with strong research skills, technical expertise, and interdisciplinary knowledge, preparing them for careers in industry, research institutions, and doctoral studies in advanced engineering and science fields.
