Bachelor in Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering applies principles of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to the design and operation of processes that transform raw materials into useful products, covering thermodynamics, reaction engineering, process design, and transport phenomena. Students study unit operations such as distillation, heat exchange, and reactor design, applying these concepts through laboratory work and process simulation coursework. The program develops the analytical and design skills needed to scale chemical processes from laboratory to industrial production. Graduates pursue careers in petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing industries, process design, and further graduate study in chemical engineering. The program is offered in English at Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey, over a duration of 4 years.
