Studying chemical engineering at RMIT brings together engineering science with engineering design and practice.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical Engineering) (Honours) will equip you with the skills and knowlege to design sustainable processes and products for the benefit of society, environment, and businesses.

In this chemical enginering degree, you’ll cover the application of chemical sciences, physics, and biological sciences and technology, to design and improve industrial processes such as water purification, food production and processing, or develop products such as cosmetics or pharmaceuticals.

You’ll learn how to make processing industries work more efficiently and minimise their environmental impact by using less energy and producing less waste. You’ll also develop the skills to design and develop ways in which raw materials, such as minerals and oil, are converted into useful products including composites, petrol, plastics and paper.

This industry-relevant degree offers work integrated learning opportunities. You’ll have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused subject offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.

You'll graduate with an internationally recognised qualification, with the degree accredited by Engineers Australia and the Institution of Chemcial Engineers.

Your degree will conclude with a final year that is 100% designed by you, maybe you will continue to work for an industry sponsor via our professional apprenticeships, start your own business with the help of RMIT Activator or undertake an applied research task with one of RMIT's Centres for Excellence, or something brand new. We'll let you decide.

At RMIT we contend that research is conducted through designing and that the process of designing, as a means of increasing knowledge, parallels research in other areas in fascinating ways.

Research candidates are supported and engaged in communities of design practice where learning is fundamentally a social phenomenon; where knowledge is integrated in the life of these communities that share interests, discourses and ways of doing things.

The Master of Design may be undertaken in a project or thesis mode. This decision is made in consultation with your supervisor.

On completion of this program you will have:

• A body of knowledge that includes the understanding of recent developments in 1 or more disciplines
• Advanced knowledge of research principles and methods applicable to the field of work or learning
• Cognitive skills to demonstrate mastery of theoretical knowledge and to reflect critically on theory and its application
• Cognitive, technical and creative skills to:
• Investigate, analyse and synthesise complex information, problems, concepts and theories and to apply established theories to different bodies of knowledge or practice
• Generate and evaluate complex ideas and concepts at an abstract level
• Use and evaluate research and research methods.
• Communication and technical skills to present coherent and sustained argument and to disseminate research results to specialist and non-specialist audiences
• Technical and communication skills to design, evaluate, implement, analyse, theorise and disseminate research that makes a contribution to knowledge and/or professional practice.

As a graduate you will demonstrate the application of these knowledge and skills:

• With creativity and initiative to new situations and/or for further learning
• With high-level personal autonomy and accountability
• To plan and execute a substantial piece of research.

Focus on the practical and technical application of design skills, and create innovative, sustainable designs for domestic and commercial-scale building projects.
