Research in the School of Chemical and Process Engineering adopts an interdisciplinary and contemporary methodology, combining cutting-edge analytical tools with advanced physical science techniques. Our comprehensive facilities enable a holistic atoms-to-products strategy in process engineering and design, influencing nearly every industry. Pursuing postgraduate research demands commitment and enthusiasm for your chosen field. Though rigorous, earning a doctorate is immensely fulfilling. Doctoral candidates undertake specialized research projects guided by a principal supervisor and additional co-supervisors.
Material properties for diverse engineering uses—spanning ICT, transportation, infrastructure, environmental management, energy systems, healthcare, and consumer goods—can be customized through scientific analysis of their fundamental characteristics. This knowledge enables precise control over morphology, microstructure, and chemical composition during manufacturing. Our investigations encompass both hard materials (metallic alloys, carbons, electronic ceramics, glasses, composites in various forms) and soft matter (polymers, molecular structures, organic crystals, colloids, emulsions, and biological systems).
