Petroleum Processing and Petrochemistry

This program study aims to create important professional competences at the graduates: development of abilities in the field of chemical engineering (operating processes and installations by applying chemical engineering knowledge, such as impulse, mass and heat transfer, reactions engineering and chemical reactors, processes control, design and optimization), thoroughly gathering knowledge in specific chemical engineering areas (hydrocarbon processing and petrochemical technologies), the ability to use methods of modeling and simulation in chemical engineering processes specifically in the field of petroleum processing. The graduates are trained to occupy qualified jobs in the chemical industry, units for transportation, storage and commercialization of chemical products and especially petroleum products, laboratories specialized in testing and certifying chemical products quality, or to pursue an advanced degree in engineering.
