Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering - Chemical Engineering (Ph.D. Co-op Optional)

This program will provide students with knowledge in a chosen area of specialty beyond the MASc degree through a research-intensive program. Students will take courses to enhance technical understanding and complete a doctoral dissertation under the supervision of a professor. Students are expected to make a novel and world-class contribution to the body of scientific knowledge, participate in the academic process, and disseminate their discoveries through scholarly publications.

Areas of Research
Biomaterials & bioprocessing: drug delivery, tissue engineering, biocompatible surfaces, bio-separations, membranes, bioreactors, pharmaceutical processing
Polymer science and engineering: polymer synthesis and characterization, polymer reaction engineering, polymer and particulate processing, paper chemistry, nanotechnology, interfacial engineering
Process system engineering and control: process systems design, process control, optimization, supply chain planning and scheduling, data mining, multivariate statistical methods
Materials and process modelling computation: molecular modelling, computational fluid dynamics, energy systems, alternatives fuels/energy, waste water treatment, life cycle analyses
