Chemical Engineering, MSc

Swansea University

Our MSc in Chemical Engineering at Swansea provides an advanced education in the principles and practice of chemical engineering, with particular emphasis on water and wastewater treatment, process optimisation, and the behaviour of complex fluids. Building on a strong foundation of research excellence and industrial engagement, the programme develops the deep technical understanding and analytical capabilities needed to tackle contemporary process challenges across a range of sectors. You will explore key areas of modern process engineering, including separation technologies, mass and heat transfer, fluid systems, and process control and optimisation. The programme is shaped by internationally recognised research in sustainable water processing, complex fluids and rheology, advanced materials, and energy and sustainability. A substantial research project forms the core of the MSc experience. Working closely with expert academic staff, and often in collaboration with industry, you will apply advanced analytical and experimental methods to real-world problems in chemical and process engineering. Graduates of the MSc Chemical Engineering programme are well prepared for careers in the water, energy, materials, and chemical industries, as well as further research in fields such as process intensification, clean technologies, and complex fluid systems.
