Program Description

The program is one of the international postgraduate offerings at TGGS. It was co-developed in 2003 by professors from AVT (Aachener Verfahrenstechnik, or Aachen Chemical Engineering) at RWTH Aachen University and the Department of Chemical Engineering at KMUTNB, and officially launched in 2005. Designed to provide advanced education that deepens understanding and competencies in chemical and process engineering, the program is tailored to meet both local and global industrial needs. It incorporates substantial practical training in the form of mandatory project-oriented internships and an industry-focused Master’s thesis.

Into the Chemical Engineering and Management (CEM) program, reflecting the industry’s changing landscape and the rising demand for versatile skill sets. This new program features a revamped curriculum aimed at equipping future engineers with a blend of chemical engineering knowledge and essential management skills. By integrating management elements, we provide a comprehensive educational experience that prepares graduates for success in both technical and managerial positions.

The curriculum of CEM program is designed along the same principles as the RWTH Aachen University German version, at the same time adapted to support the industrial development in Thailand. It is meant to create postgraduate engineers not only with hands-on knowledge, but also with research skills and competencies for the chemical industry.

Chemical Engineering and Management offers 2 study plans

Plan A1 Research Only

This study plan is specifically designed for those who have some industrial experience and wish to emphasize on research and development. The students taking this plan will conduct research entirely for four semesters. Although coursework is not compulsory, they may be requested to sit in some courses that will assist in their research work.

   Plan A2 Coursework, Internship, and Thesis

This intensive study plan is suitable for those who wish to master advanced knowledge as well as engineering skills and work competencies. The students will take ten advanced courses in the first year to strengthen their fundamental knowledge. In the second year, the students will learn how to apply their knowledge in a project-based internship and an industrial research project.

Elective Course:

  • Integrated Separation Technology
  • Energy Technology and Management
  • Strategic Process Design and Management
  • Biorefinery
  • Chemical Product Design
  • Seminar on Modern Aspects of Chemical and Process Engineering
  • Selected Topics in Chemical Engineering I, and II
