Sommaire

• Option to specialize in environmental or extractive metallurgical engineering, which deals directly with the mineral resource industry, a major economic force in Canada, and the protection of the environment

• Chemical engineers are creative problem solvers who use their scientific and technical knowledge to develop processes and designs, operate plants to make useful products at a reasonable cost, and carry out research to assure the safe and environmentally-sound manufacture, use and disposal of chemical products

• Courses focus on, among other things, organic and inorganic chemistry, statistics, thermodynamics and chemical processes
