Curious about how chemistry and biotechnology can make a difference?


How do you develop new medicines that target the right place in the body - without harmful side effects? Or design foods that boost an individual’s immune system? Can wastewater be purified with the help of microorganisms? And could we turn sewage sludge into jet fuel?

If you’re curious about how scientific knowledge can lead to practical solutions for challenges within health, climate, and the environment, then an engineering degree might be for you.

Here, you’ll learn to design sustainable processes, work in labs, and explore how molecules, materials, and microorganisms can shape real change in the world around us. And you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll be part of a community where collaboration and support are central - where there’s room for deep dives, creative thinking, and hands-on experiments.

On this page, you can explore our engineering programmes in biotechnology and chemical engineering - and get a glimpse into what some of our students are working on in their projects.
