Process and Environmental Systems Engineering

Advertisement

The MSc Process Systems Engineering programme will provide you with the skills required for a successful career in the process industries and is aimed at graduates of engineering, science or related disciplines. The programme will train you in general and specialist process systems engineering subjects. Such areas are not generally covered in engineering and science curricula and graduates tend to be ill prepared for the systems challenges they will face in industry or academia upon graduation.

The programme provides high-quality education with substantial intellectual challenges, commensurate with the financial rewards and job satisfaction when venturing into the real world. It also makes you aware of current technologies and trends based on rigorous training in matters relating to the fundamentals of the subject.
