The Biochemical Engineering undergraduate programme at UCL fully integrates engineering and biotechnology. The BEng degree is ideal for those who would like to explore careers in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical or bioenergy sectors. Both BEng and MEng degrees share a common curriculum of practical and core modules delivered through innovative teaching. The programme builds up to the Design Project in year three, where students apply the knowledge they have gained to a case study where they will be tasked with creating a process for the manufacture of a biopharmaceutical product, for example, facility design and techno-economic, including facility design and techno-economic evaluation. The degree will be broken down into three main components:
- -Discipline-specific material in biochemical engineering;
- -Common engineering elements taught within the Faculty of Engineering Sciences;
- -Minor modules where you may choose from a range of subjects offered by the Faculty of Engineering Sciences.
-
Students register for Biochemical Engineering as the core discipline but also engage in activities spanning departments via the UCL Integrated Engineering Programme. Our degrees encourage professional development, emphasising design and challenging students to apply knowledge to complex problems. You may reassess your choice of BEng/MEng route towards the end of the second year when you have gained a more profound knowledge of what the subject involves. We advise applying for the MEng if you are undecided, as this gives you the most control over your study plans.
