About the course

Research in the School of Chemical and Process Engineering takes a multi-disciplinary and modern approach to Chemical Engineering, integrating world-leading analytical infrastructure and state-of-the-art physical science. The breadth of our capabilities allows us to take a true ‘atoms-to-products’ approach to process engineering and design, with impact across virtually all industrial sectors. To complete a postgraduate research programme, you’ll need to be dedicated and passionate about your area of study. But it’ll be well worth it. Being a doctoral student is challenging, yet incredibly rewarding. You are expected to carry out a programme of research in a particular area under the supervision of a primary supervisor and one or more co-supervisors.

　　We use mathematical modelling as a tool for simulation of the behaviour of materials, processes and systems plays a significant role in contemporary science and research. Its potential for developing methods for numerical design and prediction of phenomena in physico-chemical and biological systems increases with the continuously increasing computer power, data storage and improved visualisation approaches. Mathematical models can be used as simulators of new processes and materials, providing ways for the efficient optimisation of their parameters. Such techniques can also be used for control and decision making at different levels – from physical performance to strategy building. The use of mathematical models to predict process behaviour and material properties responds to the increasing demand for digitalisation of the economy.
