Bachelor of Chemical Engineering
The Chemical Engineering IUP curriculum equips students with strong foundations in process engineering, material and energy transformation, and sustainable industrial systems. Students learn how raw materials are converted into valuable products through efficient, safe, and environmentally responsible processes.
The program integrates core chemical engineering principles, digital process modelling, and sustainability-oriented design, preparing graduates to contribute to industries such as energy, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food, and materials, as well as for advanced studies at leading international universities.
Â
Program Structure & Learning Journey
The undergraduate programs within the Chemical Engineering IUP follow the semester credit system (Satuan Kredit Semester/SKS). Students typically complete approximately 144 credits over four years of study, designed to provide a balanced progression from foundational sciences to advanced engineering practice.
Students develop strong foundations in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering thinking. This stage builds the scientific understanding necessary for analyzing material and energy transformation processes in later years.
Students begin learning core chemical engineering principles such as thermodynamics, material balances, transport phenomena, and process analysis, supported by laboratory work and computational tools.
Students deepen their expertise in process design, reaction engineering, separation processes, and sustainable production systems. Analytical and modeling approaches are emphasized to address complex industrial challenges.
Students integrate their knowledge through plant design projects, industrial applications, and research-oriented coursework, preparing them for professional practice or advanced studies in chemical and process industries.
