Chemical Engineering /Food Engineering - Bachelor's Degree

HCMUT - Bach Khoa, offers Bachelor of  Chemical /Food Engineering for International students, with scholarships and financial aids consideration, opportunities to transfer to partner universities in Australia, USA

OVERVIEW

Chemical Engineering
Closely linked with the fundamental subjects of chemistry, biology, mathematics, and physics — and in close collaboration with fellow engineering disciplines. Chemical Engineering provides students with essential knowledge in physical, chemical, and biological processes, engineering design, and synthesis skills; creatively shape and solve complex problems.

*HCMUT – Bach khoa is the only university in the South of Vietnam that provides this program in English.

Food Engineering

Students interested in the production, processing, packaging, safety and/or transportation of the world’s food supply will be taught to combine engineering (fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer, etc.), math, and science (biology, chemistry, and physics) with advanced courses in food chemistry, microbiology, food processing operations, and engineering design.

CAREER OPPORTUNITY

Chemical Engineering
Graduates have solid professional knowledge to work in areas such as mineral mining, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, alcohol, plastic, packaging…

Career opportunities include works on operational management and operating chemical manufacturing technology equipment systems, system design and calculation, product research and development, product analysis – management…

Companies often recruit graduates in this sector are:

Oil and Gas: Petrovietnam – Vietnam Oil and Gas Group, Saigon Petro
Design consulting firm on the technological process: Technip, Toyo,...
Food – pharmaceutical companies: Acecook, Domesco, Coca-Cola,…
Companies manufacturing chemical product: Unilever, P&G,…
Environment remediation companies: Greentech,…
Cement companies: Holcim, HaTien 1,…
Fertilizer: Ca Mau Fertilizer Plant, Phu My Fertilizer Plant,…

Food Engineering

Food engineers use their skills to design sustainable and environmentally responsible food processes for manufacturing safe, tasty, healthy, convenient food products as consumer awareness and demand for a safe and abundant supply of food have increased

Graduates have a wide range of jobs to pursue their careers. However, the jobs are usually grouped in the following 4 categories:

Product development: working with food products, packaging, etc.
Engineering: developing the processes and machinery to make and store the food.
Technical management: overseeing the way the food is made, packaged and stored.
Hygiene and food safety.

TRANSFER OPPORTUNITIES
Students have 2 options:
Option 1:
Students study at HCMUT – Bach khoa (HCMUT) for 4 years and get the Bachelor of Food Engineering awarded by HCMUT – Bach khoa (HCMUT).
Option 2:
After completing 02 years at HCMUT – Bach khoa (HCMUT), students with financial and academic eligibility may transfer to our partner universities the later 02 years to complete their study for Bachelor degree. The official bachelor degree is awarded by the partner universities.
HCMUT – Bach khoa (HCMUT) is currently working to associate the program with our partner universities in USA and Australia. The information will be updated here soon.
