Bachelor in Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering applies principles of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to the design and operation of processes that convert raw materials into useful products. Students study thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mass and heat transfer, reaction engineering, and process control, alongside laboratory work in chemical analysis and plant-scale simulation. Coursework typically builds from core sciences toward applied topics such as separation processes, reactor design, and plant safety, often supported by design projects that mirror real industrial problems. Graduates find roles in petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, food processing, materials manufacturing, and environmental engineering, as well as in process design, quality control, and plant operations. This bachelor's program runs over 4 years and is taught in English at Istanbul Health and Technology University, located in Istanbul, Turkey. The English-medium instruction gives students access to international technical literature and industry standards used across the global chemical and process industries. Being based in Istanbul, a major industrial and commercial hub, offers proximity to manufacturing sites and companies that can support internships and early career opportunities. The curriculum aims to balance theoretical grounding in chemical sciences with hands-on laboratory and computational skills, preparing graduates for both engineering practice and further study in specialized areas of process and materials engineering.
