The Student Finance service provides student loans to help pay for tuition fees and the cost of living, depending on your circumstances.
You'll be charged interest on your loan as soon as you take it out, but you only start repayments once you earn more than a certain amount - currently £21,000.
Repayments are based on how much you earn, not how much you've borrowed.
Course overview
The BEng (Hons) in Chemical Engineering (with placement year) is shaped by the ongoing needs of industry, while focusing on the traditional disciplines of oil, gas and petrochemical production.
You’ll get the knowledge and hands-on experience you need to operate in a range of industry sectors, learning in a research-informed, multidisciplinary environment.
Your studies will give you a deep understanding of fundamental and advanced technical principles such as:
Fluid mechanics
Thermodynamics
Mass and heat transfer
Chemical reactions
Process control
Safety, health and environment
You’ll also gain practical experience with analytical tools, and the competencies required to apply this knowledge in industry.
The placement year in industry enables you to build contacts whilst developing your skills and professional confidence.
Chemical Engineering at Bradford has extensive links to industry. Our Lecturers are actively working on research projects with industry, with recent research projects linked to leading pharmaceutical, oil, gas, petrochemical and advanced material engineering companies.
Depending on your level of progress, transfer to our MEng programme is possible at the end of either your first or second year. The MEng programme involves an additional academic year of more in-depth study.
Chemical Engineering received 94% overall satisfaction in the National Student Survey 2017.
