6-18 UOC of Engineering Management courses
At least 18 UOC of Specialisation courses
Program Structure for 7338
Students must complete a total of 48 Units of Credit (UOC) consisting of:
24 UOC of Professional Development courses* from the chosen specialisation
6-12 UOC of Engineering Management courses
At least 12 UOC of Specialisation courses
*A student who has been awarded a Bachelor of Science from UNSW with at least Honours II/2. or
equivalent in an appropriate discipline, will be exempted from some or all Professional Development
courses.
Specialisation Description
The specialisation in Chemical Process Engineering is aimed at covering in depth designing,
analysing and monitoring of factors affecting the life cycle of plants, process and operations. Issues
that affect business decisions encountered in the chemical industry are introduced and distinctions
are made in order to focus on efficient design and robust, objective analysis.
