Chemical engineering provides the leading-edge solutions to the society’s needs: we require clean energy sources, efficient and clean technologies for energy transformation, technologically advanced materials, better medicines, efficient food production techniques, a clean environment, a better use of natural resources.

The Master of Science in Chemistry and Advanced Chemical Methodologies belongs to the Class LM-54 (Scienze Chimiche). It offers the possibility to enhance chemistry knowledge, especially in the areas that characterize the chemical research in UNICAM. The course provides skills and fundamental knowledge in innovative chemistry areas, in order to offer an educational qualification competitive in the global labor market.

The Master’s degree program trains professionals able to interpret, formalize, and solve complex problems related to the design, operation, and optimization of industrial processes where chemical, physical, and biochemical transformations of material and energy are carried out. Focusing on raw materials selection, process and equipment design and operation, safety and environmental management as well as cross-disciplinary issues, the program offers both strong theoretical and application-oriented courses fostering skills and knowledge for sustainable engineering deployment in future society. This is a European-accredited Master engineering program according to the EUR-ACE system.

Graduates of the Master in Chemical and process engineering: Sustainable Technologies and Biotechnologies for Energy and Materials will have the training to go on to work in numerous fields, including the conventional chemical and process industry (petrochemical, specialty chemicals, pharmaceutical), the wide-spread energy industrial sectors (up-stream and down-stream Oil&Gas, energy generation, green energy production), and many other specialized sectors (material production, food technologies, industrial biotechnologies, etc.).

The Joint Master Degree in Chemical Innovation and Regulation - ChIR aims to prepare professionals with the scientific, regulatory and economic knowledge necessary to manage the risks of chemicals, to design and realize chemical innovations and to meet responsibilities over chemical legislation worldwide.

The curriculum “Chemical Engineering for Innovative Processes & Products" of the MSc Chemical Engineering provides the student with a solid preparation and specialized knowledge in the fundamental theoretical and industrial aspects of chemical processes and operations and of materials technology.
