The PPD program offers you the possibility to hire a technological designer with a solid background in chemical engineering, who has the right capabilities and skills to design and develop complex new products and processes and offer innovative solutions to your technological design issues.
Our trainees have a university degree in chemical engineering or chemistry (or related programs) before they enroll in our program. Selection for these programs is tough: typically candidates are from the top 25% graduates of technological universities.
During the first year trainees follow dedicated courses, work on their professional, personal and designing skills and carry out hands-on team projects to become well prepared for the industry. They are guided by highly experienced lecturers who are mostly from industry.
Our post-master level courses program comprises:
- Process design and product design
- Simulation, modeling and control
- Process synthesis
- Equipment engineering
- Thermodynamics
- Polymer reaction engineering
- Computational fluid dynamics
- Polymer processing and rheology
A GOOD INVESTMENT
