Knowledge Laboratory - CENG95006
Aims
The aim of the module is for students to develop a mind-set for problem solving through experiential and practical based learning in order to tackle the challenges they may face as chemical engineers in industry.
Role
Lecturer
Advanced Bioprocess Engineering - CENG97027
Aims
This course is offered as an option in the 3rd and 4th years of the undergraduate programme, as well
as the MSc programme. Its primary aim is to cover advanced topics in biotechnology. The course is
split roughly equally between details of upstream bioprocessing (genetic engineering, cell growth,
bioreactor modelling, bioprocess analytics) and application areas (vaccines, enzyme biotechnology,
tissue engineering). The latter are drawn from emerging topical areas of the day and aim to expose
students to cutting-edge research in biotechnology.
Role
Lecturer
CENG40003 Foundation Laboratory - CE1-03-2
Aims
The aim of the Foundation Lab is for students to acquire and develop essential skills in manipulating apparatus, making measurements and analysing data. Students will also be trained to keep accurate records. Particular emphasis is placed on safe working in the laboratory.
Role
Lecturer
Applied Spectroscopy - CENG97072
Aims
This module teaches students fundamentals and applications of Applied Spectroscopy. This knowledge will equip students with necessary understanding of a range of analytical techniques needed for addressing challenges being faced by industry. Spectroscopicmethods such as FTIR, Raman and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy, optical sensors, spectroscopic imaging, NMR, Mass spectrometry, XPS. Fundamental topics include the theory of spectra and their interpretation while applications include innovative approaches in industries. This module features example problems solved in class.
Role
Lecturer
Advanced Chemical Engineering Design Practice Final Year Design - CENG97006
Aims
The Design Project has the objective of giving students experience of advanced design practice by carrying out a complex design task in as realistic a way as possible. The desired learning outcomes include producing a comprehensive design in response to an open-ended brief, while working in a large team, under realistic time pressure and on the basis of limited information.
The main aims of the Design Project are to help students:
• develop skills in complex design problem-solving including technical, safety, environmental and economic aspects
• develop skills in the effective management of work and decision making in large groups
• develop skills in the presentation (oral and written) of complex techno-economic results
