Overview
The course aims to develop highly qualified professionals in chemical and process engineering who are able to analyse and critically evaluate various industrial processes applying the principles of sustainability and circular economy. In addition, graduates will develop and implement advanced technologies that combine “green” thinking, engineering knowledge and practical skills, and to apply this to scientific and industrial activities. Throughout the course, they will be expected to be creative in their thinking and analysis, and independently organise and perform research.
Programme structure
The courses in the programme curriculum.
In Semester 1, students take Intro to Scientific Research, Principles of Sustainable Development, and Numerical and Mathematical Modelling. They obtain the knowledge of hydrocarbon reservoirs, key methods of oil &gas extraction as well as components of oil drilling rigs, study the chemical and fractional composition of petroleum, learn about thermal and catalytic refining processes, cleaner technologies, and renewable energy sources.
In Semester 2, students acquire the knowledge of chemical reaction engineering, thermal and catalytic petroleum refining processes equipment, and oil waste treatment technologies, and simultaneously develop their skills of understanding corrosion problems in the oil & gas sector and learn about the oil & gas terminals supply chain and pipelines.
Semester 3 is devoted to the preparation and defense of the Master’s final thesis.
Career opportunities
Graduates can work as a researcher, technology expert, or advisor / manager in various industrial companies within areas such as alternative fuels, oil and gas refineries, energy sector, transportation terminals, scientific institutions, and chemical laboratories. Alternatively, continued research within doctoral studies might be a choice.
