Mastertrack Chemical and Process Technology (CPT)

 

 

The core courses of the Chemical and Process Technology (CPT) track

The core program of the CPT track consists of four mandatory courses in the first year, as well as a graduation project and an industrial internship in the second year. Each core course carries a workload of 5 credits (EC) according to the European Credit Transfer System.

CORE PROGRAM 1ste YEAR Studypoints (ECTS) P1 P2 P3 P4
6CPT10 Advanced Transport Phenomena (D): Explore mass, momentum, and energy transport through the systematic application of microbalance equations.  5 EC        
6CPT20 Catalysis, Science and Technology (E):  Gain a comprehensive understanding of catalysis principles and their application in industrial chemical processes.  5 EC        
6CPT30 Advanced Chemical Reactor Engineering (A): Learn to design and operate multiphase chemical reactors used in major industrial processes.  5 EC        
6CPT40 Advanced Separation Technology (E): Focus on the design of advanced separation techniques, including hybrid techniques and reactive membrane processes. 5 EC

Electives and specializations

In consultation with your mentor, you will create a personalized elective program that aligns with your track and specialization. You can choose courses within the faculty, covering topics such as sustainable chemical processes, polymers, catalysis, or materials science, or you may take courses at other faculties or universities.

Examples of elective courses within the CPT track include:

  • 6EMA01 Micro Flow Chemistry and Process Technology (A): Learn about continuous-flow reactors, microstructured reactors, and advanced technologies such as microwave- and plasma-assisted reactors for the chemical industry of the future.
  • 6EMA08 Multiphase Computational Fluid Dynamics (A): Study the simulation of multiphase systems using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and learn to select the appropriate models for accurate problem-solving.
  • 6EMA06 Advanced Process Design (B): Work in teams to develop process flow diagrams, perform design calculations, and conduct techno-economic evaluations for chemical process installations.

(International) internship and graduation project

International Experience & Industry Internship

In the second year, you will have the opportunity to gain international experience through an internship or research project. A three-month industry internship is an integral part of the master鈥檚 program, allowing you to gain practical experience at a company or research institute. Thanks to strong connections with multinationals and the Brainport region, numerous opportunities are available.

Graduation Project

During an eight-month research project within the faculty, you will work independently on a scientific challenge, often in collaboration with PhD candidates.
