Bachelor in Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering focuses on converting raw materials into valuable products through chemical, physical, and biological processes, underpinning industries from energy and pharmaceuticals to food production and advanced materials. Core areas of study include thermodynamics, mass and heat transfer, chemical reaction engineering, and process control, building on a base of chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Students work through laboratory courses and design projects that require translating chemical reactions observed at small scale into safe, efficient processes suitable for industrial-scale production, developing both technical depth and practical process-design ability. Graduates find roles in petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food, and materials industries, as well as in environmental and process engineering, and the degree supports graduate study in chemical engineering or specialized process fields. This bachelor's program is offered by Boğaziçi University in İstanbul, Turkey, running for 4 years, with instruction in English. English-medium instruction reflects the international nature of chemical process industries and technical publishing in the field, preparing graduates to work with multinational firms or pursue graduate education conducted in English. Situated in İstanbul, a city with a substantial industrial and manufacturing base, students have access to a setting where process industries operate at meaningful scale, giving practical relevance to coursework in industrial chemistry and process engineering. The program suits students who enjoy both chemistry and engineering design, offering training that bridges laboratory-scale science and the large-scale processes used across manufacturing and process industries.
