Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out missions of chemical engineering and materials science, with a focus on chemical industry processes, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques relating to material properties, chemical changes, transport phenomena and thermodynamic properties, characterisation techniques and methods of chemical and material compounds, environmentally friendly production processes, and their optimisation and simulation.
• Analyse and model a process or way of producing a compound by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
• Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the chemical, petrochemical, biotechnology, pharmaceutical and polymer industries.
• Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
• Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
• Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
