Bachelor of Applied Science in Chemical Engineering

About this programme

Looking to make a lasting impact on the world around you? Chemical engineers improve the processes that produce food, medication, fuel energy, biomedical devices, and much more. As a Queen's Chemical Engineering student, you'll belong to one of the first Chemical Engineering programs in North America, established over 100 years ago. Your education will cover the diversity of knowledge needed in chemical engineering. From mathematics, chemistry, physics, and biology to engineering science, design, and economics- chemical engineers use a wide range of expertise to work towards a single goal. In this program, you will learn how to design safe, efficient, sustainable, and economical processes and products. You'll learn to analyze and design the chemical processes that span from molecular to macroscopic scales. Take your learning beyond the theoretical in our state-of-the-art research labs. Our labs are equipped with high-quality, well-maintained equipment and a technical support team. Learn how to improve process operation and product quality by using laboratory experiments and statistical techniques to examine process data and create experiments. You'll use computer software tools for chemical process simulation, analysis, design, and control. You'll also have hands-on training with pilot-scale chemical process equipment and simulators. With their versatile skillset, chemical engineers are sought after in a growing range of industries. A chemical engineer's expertise in finding cost-effective and safe solutions can take them just about anywhere- from small, specialized com
