Overview

Process Engineers are concerned primarily with the design, operation and management of processing systems to alter and upgrade materials into products that are more useful to society. Since Process Engineers are employed in many different industries, the basic training is general and not industry-specific.

The Bachelor’s in Applied Science (B.A.Sc)/ Masters of Engineering (M.Eng.) programme in Process Engineering is broadly based and built on a thorough grounding in mathematics and science followed by the study of core process engineering topics such as fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, material and energy audits, energy transformation, separation operations, process design etc. Key objectives of the program are to develop analytical and problem solving skills, communication skills and a level of general education that will allow the graduate to function effectively as a process engineer in the twenty-first century.

The programme for the first year is common to all Engineering disciplines and provides a basic grounding on the fundamentals of engineering systems. The next 2 years cover the fundamentals of Process Engineering after which students can graduate with the B.A.Sc degree.

Those wishing of advanced studies to the M.Eng level can move to a fourth year of studies. The M.Eng degree combines advanced technical courses and introductory business courses with a cross-disciplinary design project that prepares students for careers that require greater breadth and depth in process engineering.

A significant differentiator in the UTT programmes is the approach to the capstone design projects. These projects are conducted in collaboration with industry. Groups of students work closely with technical personnel from companies to solve typical problems met in industry. The approach provides the students with invaluable experience in engineering design and practice and better prepares them for entry into the workplace.
