Chemical Engineering
Request a QuoteThe branch of Chemical engineering links the physical sciences (chemistry and physics) and life sciences (biology, microbiology and biochemistry) together with mathematics and economics to processes that convert raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms. Chemical engineering emerged upon the development of unit operations, a fundamental concept of the discipline chemical engineering. The branch involves the design of the unit operations for large scale manufacture. Chemical engineers now engage in the development and production of a diverse range of products like fabrics, adhesives and specialty chemicals. Today, the field has grown into diverse study areas such as biotechnology and nanotechnology to mineral processing. The biggest advantage that a Chemical Engineer possesses is their knowledge of chemistry in addition to other engineering disciplines. As a reason, their scientific and technical mastery is so broad. The job opportunity for a Chemical Engineer is not limited. They play a vital role in such diverse industries such as petroleum and petrochemicals, energy, power generation including ultra mega power plants, coal-bed methane, combined gas cycle plants and nuclear power, defense, mining and minerals including steel and aluminum, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, nanotechnology, cement, fertilizers, textiles, leather, food and agro-based technologies, polymers, and environmental engineering. They are placed in organizations of repute such as Pollution Control boards, VSSC, DRDO, NCL, Refineries and also in companies such as Binani Zinc, KMML, Research Laboratories, Steel Industries etc. The students can also opt for higher studies in institutes like IISc, IIT S, NIT s and other institutes, as the focus of the academics is purely result oriented and with emphasis on Competitive exams such as GATE.The four-year B. Tech program of the Department is dedicated to delivering technically proficient and ethically responsible engineers to the society.
