The Master’s Programme in Chemical Engineering for Energy Transition at LUT University equips you to tackle global warming and the shift to renewable resources. Chemical engineers are important in creating innovative processes and products to combat climate change as the world moves away from fossil fuels.

The curriculum covers various aspects of chemical engineering, including traditional principles, process development, and design. You'll learn unit operations modelling, separation processes, process simulation, computational fluid dynamics, and product and process design, preparing you for roles across different sectors of the chemical or process industry.

A major focus is on converting renewable energy into chemical products. This includes hydrogen production, carbon capture, and synthesizing fuels and chemicals from renewable sources. Efficiency and cost competitiveness are the main focus, highlighting the importance of economically viable sustainable solutions.

You'll also explore process intensification, developing compact, energy-efficient, and cost-effective solutions to enhance the chemical industry's competitiveness in the future.

Teaching methods are mixture of lectures, exercises, assignments, and student projects. Group design projects offer hands-on experience in addressing industrial challenges related to power-to-chemical conversion, applying theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios.

While primarily on the Lappeenranta campus, the program may include distance learning courses for flexibility. Over two years, you'll complete a Master's thesis, conducting original research in your chosen specialization.

Upon graduation, you'll receive a Master of Science in Technology (M.Sc. (Tech.)) degree at LUT University, equipped with a deep understanding of chemical engineering principles, advanced knowledge in energy transition technologies, and practical skills to innovate in the field.
