Understand how the program will unfold over the next 2 years
With a legacy of four decades, the MIT-WPU School of Chemical Engineering is one of the foremost centers of Chemical Engineering in India. Founded to meet the rising demand of skillful Chemical Engineers in the country and abroad, it has been producing a competent and talented workforce for all the walks of Chemical Industries over forty years. Well-equipped laboratories along with a highly qualified and expert academic staff ensure that the MIT WPU School of Engineering excels at research, that the burgeoning Chemical Industry sorely needs.
There are presently more than seven titles being currently researched at the school with grants from various National funding agencies. Our contemporary as well as future technology-oriented syllabus empowered by numerous industry and alumni interactions ensure that we remain abreast with the latest developments in the field of Chemical Engineering ensuring the quality of our graduates. With an emphasis of the holistic development of our students exercised through excellent infrastructure and learned faculty members, we continue to produce the finest Chemical Engineers and engage in innovative research upskilling the learners for the future.
The Masters Program in Chemical Engineering aims to upskill and reskill the graduate students from Chemical, Petrochemical, Petroleum, Polymer, Oil and Paints and allied branches into technology practitioners. With Electric vehicles disrupting IC Engines on fossil fuels and emergence of Fuel Cell Vehicles, Energy is the vital field of research for us. We have expert faculty members who have successfully executed research in 2G Ethanol, Bio Methane, Green hydrogen production. With Decarbonization garnering interest and more efforts from Governments and private organizations towards Green Energy, we commit to empower our Masters learners to delve into innovation and encourage to become entrepreneurs earning business acumen.
