Master Process Engineering

Engineers must be able to address the challenges of society and to respond to its evolving demands in creative and responsible ways. Process engineers have a broad education, firmly rooted in the fundamentals of natural sciences and engineering, which provides them with the ideal profile to enable them to play a key role in addressing issues such as new materials and production technologies, sustainable energy systems, technologies to investigate climate change, pollution prevention, and processes for the food and pharmacological industries.

The Master integrates in-depth knowledge of core areas in mechanical and process engineering with mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, and bioengineering. The students develop and apply a variety of tools in order to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying phenomena and processes.

Research and innovation is stimulated by project work in which students combine theory and practice through close contact with the cutting edge research areas of D-MAVT.

The social context and broad interdependencies of process engineering are reflected in courses selected from humanities, social and political sciences, economics and management.
