About this programme
Graduate elective specializations allow chemical engineering students to carry out in-depth exploration of a subject area in modern chemical engineering. To fulfill a specialization, the student must complete any combination of four courses (12 points total) from a list of technical elective courses that have been approved by the department to count towards that specialization. Courses taken P/F do not count towards specializations. Five specializations are offered: (i) Biotechnology; (ii) Climate Solutions; (iii) Data and Computational Science; (iv) Electrochemical Energy; and (v) Soft and Sustainable Materials.
