Studying chemical engineering at RMIT brings together engineering science with engineering practice and design. It provides you with a practical and vocational focus that is well recognized by industry.
In this degree, you’ll cover the application of chemical, physics, and biological sciences and technology, for the design and improvement of industrial processes such as water purification, food production and processing, or developing products such as cosmetics or pharmaceuticals.
You’ll learn how to make processing industries work more efficiently and minimize their environmental impact by using less energy and producing less waste.
You’ll also develop the skills to design and develop ways in which raw materials, such as minerals and oil, are converted into useful products including composites, petrol, plastics and paper.
You’ll have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.
To ensure you graduate job-ready, you’ll also have an opportunity to undertake a work-integrated learning (industry experience) elective.
Industry connections
The degree has strong links with industry.
Students undertake one week of work in industry in Year 3 and guest lecturers from industry join classes throughout the course.
Research and design projects in Year 4 may be based on an industry project and industry input, thus providing opportunities for work-integrated learning.
As well, students may visit industry sites throughout the course.
