Chemical Engineering and Chemistry

Welcome to the department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry

The department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry wants to be a center of inspired learning in chemical engineering and chemistry, encouraging the pursuit of new knowledge and innovative scholarship. To fulfil this mission, we provide strong chemical engineering and chemistry education for the benefit of solving complex societal challenges and to advance basic science and technology. This in itself will impact chemical and other associated industries and broader society. By interlinking chemical engineering sciences, materials chemistry and molecular systems our department translates fundamental research into marketable applications. To get the most valuable result we commit ourself to excellence in education, research and valorization. We pursue this in a collegial atmosphere with extensive collaborations and by sharing our expertise and scientific equipment infrastructure.

At the Chemical Engineering & Chemistry department, our work is driven by these challenges. Here, we use chemistry to understand and solve problems, shape the future, and create real impact.

Whether it鈥檚 improving healthcare, turning waste into valuable resources, making clean energy more accessible, advancing future technologies, working with advanced materials, or designing smarter processes everything we do is aligned with making a meaningful difference in the world.

We鈥檙e proud to be on this journey together with leading names in industry and our partners.

Because together, we create chemistry for a better world.
