Be part of an evolving field with real-world impact at Waterloo, one of the world’s top chemical engineering programs. You’ll develop the skills and tools to transform raw materials into valuable products people use to create a better, more sustainable future.
Chemical engineers are experts in the transformation of materials and energy at industrial scales. They're responsible for the production of biofuels, plastics and polymers, batteries, pharmaceuticals, biomedical devices, microelectronics, and pretty much everything you can imagine.
At Waterloo, you’ll learn how to design and operate safe, economical, and environmentally friendly processes to convert raw materials and waste into energy and valuable products. Delve deep into subjects ranging from thermodynamics and fluid mechanics to materials science, biochemical engineering, and process control.
As a chemical engineer, your skillset and knowledge are truly universal! (No wonder the program gives you the ability to advance all 17 of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.) Launch a purposeful career in life-saving pharmaceuticals, sustainable fuel, food manufacturing, personal care and cosmetics, renewable energy, biotechnology, health care, pollution control, and the automotive sector.
