CHEMMAT 713 : Advanced Chemical Engineering

Postgraduate course

Project description

These papers involve independent projects which may be theoretical (literature), experimental or modelling based and can be in any relevant field of Chemical Engineering. The projects will be supervised by a leading, research-active academic but the emphasis of the projects is on student "ownership". Students will submit a report on their project. At the end of the semester, students will give an oral presentation on their work. The exact nature of supervision should be determined between students and their academic supervisors. It is expected that students take the lead role in arranging meetings as and when necessary, and should be providing a brief outline of their project within the first 4 weeks of the semester. It is envisaged that meetings would normally take place on at least a monthly basis (beginning of the semester, project outline after week 4, progress after week 8) but may be more frequent.
