About
At UCL's Department of Chemical Engineering, you will be taught by lecturers recognised as international leaders in their field.
The department offers an impressive national and international network of industrial contacts and has strong collaborative links with other university departments in the UK and abroad.
This programme, incl. the Chemical with Biochemical route and the Study Abroad route, is fully accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and meets the requirements, in full, for registration as a Chartered Engineer, for a period of five years, from the 2017 student cohort intake.
This degree is part of an integrated programme across engineering providing opportunities to broaden your horizons through interactions with other disciplines. There is also the flexibility to choose the fine details of your individual degree options gradually as you progress through the programme.
