From energy to foods to cosmetics and antibiotics, Chemical Engineers transform raw materials into greener, safer and innovative products that we use in our everyday lives. Regarded as one of the most versatile areas of engineering, Chemical Engineering combines the world of chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics, design and process engineering.
In the first two years of your degree, all engineering students complete the Core Engineering Program. This Program can be taken on the Sexton Campus in Halifax, or the Agricultural Campus in Truro. You will study core courses in math, science, engineering science and design, developing a broad foundation in engineering.

At the end of your first year, you can apply to one of our six tailored engineering disciplinesincluding Chemical Engineering. Placement in a specific discipline is competitive and based on academic performance in the first year.

In the third year of your degree, you will transition into your discipline and can choose to combine your degree with co-operative education.
