Department of Chemical Engineering

Undergraduate program of Chemical Engineering Department has been accredited for 5 years from April 2016, by National Board of Accreditation (NBA)
  • Chemical Engineering

About the Department



The idea of the creation of the Department of Chemical Engineering at AMU was born with the visit of his Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan of the UAE in 1975. The approval of the UGC was obtained for the creation of the Department in the fifth Five Year Plan and it came into existence in 1978, when the first undergraduate course in Chemical Engineering started with an intake of thirty students.

A Post-graduate Diploma in Petroleum Processing was started in the Department in 1987, which was upgraded to full-fledged degree, M.Sc. Engg. (Petroleum Processing) in 1988. Subsequently, a masters programme, M. Tech. (Chemical Engineering) was started in 1999 with specialization in Process Modelling and Simulation. Another specialization, "Computer Aided Design of Process Plant" has also been approved.

Apart from B. Tech. and M. Tech. programmes, the Department also offers PhD in Chemical Engineering in a wide range of thrust areas: heat transfer, waste management, nanotechnology, mass transfer, enhanced distillation thermodynamics, and modelling & simulation etc. Till date five PhDs have been awarded while six are in progress.

VISION

To be a world class Chemical Engineering Department that imparts high quality education to its graduates and prepares them to be leaders in chemical

engineering and allied fields.

MISSION

1. To produce globally acceptable, competent, ethically strong and professional chemical engineers to serve the needs of society as engineers, technocrats, entrepreneurs and leaders.

2. To foster process engineering knowledge through collaborative research and innovation with leading academic institutions and industry.

3. To prepare the students coming from different socio-economic levels including a sizeable number from the marginalized sections of society for a successful career in chemical engineering and allied fields.

4. To create a conducive environment to attract and retain the best faculty.

Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs) (B.Tech)

1. To provide necessary background in science, particularly in advanced mathematics, physics and chemistry that underline modern chemical engineering and technology.

2. To provide training so that the graduates are able to choose their careers as practicing chemical engineers in traditional chemical industries as well as in expanding areas of material, environment and energy related industries and be able to solve problems relevant to the general practice of chemical engineering and engineering design.

3. To prepare students so that they function effectively in the complex modern work environment with the ability not only to work as part of a team but also to assume professional leadership roles.

4. To promote awareness among students for life-long learning and noble human values, and to inculcate in them professional ethics and codes of practice.

5. To motivate the students to engage in post-baccalaureate study and make timely progress toward and advanced degree in chemical engineering or a related business.
