Einführung

The master's programme in Chemical Engineering for Energy and Environment delivers extensive knowledge in the diverse field of Chemical Engineering with a focus on sustainability. Students acquire modern tools to analyse various processes, from the production of biofuels to the purification of drinking water. Graduates have the engineering skills needed to meet the societal challenge of how best to use our available energy and finite natural resources.

Chemical Engineering for Energy and Environment at KTH

In this programme, you will gain advanced knowledge and skills in chemical engineering and obtain modern tools to analyse various processes. These processes can be anything from producing biofuels and energy storage to purifying drinking water and exhaust gases. You will acquire competence throughout the whole chain, from raw materials to the final product. The analyses of the processes often include aspects of chemicals, heat, electricity and the environment.

Year one and the first semester of the second year consist of one mandatory course in the theory and methodology of science with applications as well as conditionally elective and recommended courses, allowing you to design your education to meet your personal and professional goals. The remainder of year two consists of a mandatory project course in process design for industry and society. During the last semester, you will carry out a degree project at a company, at KTH, or another university or research institute around the world.

Complementary skills such as problem-solving and teamwork are emphasised in many courses, as are written and spoken communication. Therefore, most courses offer seminars and project assignments to complement traditional lectures. A majority of the courses include laboratory work in the research labs. The education is closely linked to the research conducted at the School of Engineering Sciences in Chemistry, Biotechnology and Health at KTH in general and the Department of Chemical Engineering in particular. The programme also has close links to the Swedish industry, especially the motor vehicle industry through Scania and Volvo, and the energy utility industry through Fortum och Vattenfall. The programme provides an excellent basis for activities in countries outside Sweden, as most of the teachers have close contact with foreign universities and companies. There are good opportunities to study parts of the programme abroad through student exchange with other prominent universities in the field of chemical engineering or carry out the degree project abroad.

This is a two-year programme (120 ECTS credits) given in English. Graduates are awarded the degree of Master of Science. The programme is given mainly at KTH Campus in Stockholm by the School of Engineering Sciences in Chemistry, Biotechnology and Health (at KTH).
