The education in the specialisation process systems engineering enables the students to work on the design and operation of complex chemical and biochemical production systems using mathematical models and modern computer tools for simulation and optimization. This comprises advanced control and production scheduling methods and the analysis and description of experimental data.
The programme lasts at least three semesters. It is intended for students having a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering or its equivalent and starts in summer semester. However, students having passed a bachelor's programme of less than 7 semesters or a non-ECTS* bachelor programme have to start with an obligatory preparatory semester (zeroth semester) starting in October. Thus the course lasts two years. The preparatory semester is recommended also for ECTS* bachelors.
* ECTS: European Credit Transfer System
The courses provide fundamental yet detailed, scientifically and practically challenging applied education, while additionally focussing on soft skills and languages. Above and beyond a sound engineering knowledge, the students will acquire a working knowledge of German and technical English and develop social skills through group projects and seminars.
