Program Description

Six year part-time program leading to the award of the degree of Bachelor of Science (Technology) in Chemical Engineering is intended for students who are employed in relevant industries and who wish to prepare for a degree mainly by part-time attendance. It consist of 144UOC of the full-time program including the general education requirements, but undertaken over a six year period.

As part of the requirements for the award of the BSc(Tech) degree, students are required to complete an approved program of industrial training of not less than one year prior to the award of the degree. Industrial training should normally be completed concurrently with attendance in the program, but with the approval of the Head of School, may be completed after completion of the prescribed program of study.

Students who qualify for the award of the BSc(Tech) degree and who wish to proceed to the award of a BE degree will normally be required to complete further work which will involve at least one year of full-time attendance.

Transfer is also possible from full-time programs to the part-time BSc (Tech) degree program, but a period of approved industrial experience must be gained before graduation. This requirement will apply to students transferring from BE degree programs within the Faculty.

Further details of part time programs can be obtained from the Director of Teaching and Learning.
