This course introduces students to single variable calculus. Topics covered include: limits, continuity, derivative, indefinite integral, definite
integral, fundamental theorem of calculus, applications of derivatives, maximum and minimum, applications of integrals, techniques of
integration, improper integrals, first-order and second-order linear ODEs.
This course covers Laplace transforms, Fourier series, linear algebra, ordinary differential equations and partial differentiation.
This course introduces the theory and applications of optimization using mathematical methods in chemical engineering and related fields. Optimization in the field of chemical engineering is required to utilize the resources in an efficient way as well as to reduce the environmental impact of a process in order to achieve the most favorable operating conditions.
This course will provide students with systematic knowledge of chemical engineering thermodynamics such as basic laws of thermodynamics and their applications, PVT relations of fluid, thermodynamic properties and calculations. Energy inter-conversion and effective use will also be discussed.
This course will combine knowledge and skills to conduct various chemical engineering experiments, tabulate and interpret data, analyse results, prepare reports and presentation.
The course aims to provide students with knowledge about the roles and professional conduct of an engineer in modern society. The course covers a wide range of topics including safety, health, sustainability and cultural issues, quality engineering, legal aspects, environment and engineering ethics, which have a significant impact on engineering design and activities.
This course provides a more detailed understanding of important elements of process safety as they are often encountered in industrial practice. The course is aimed at strengthening and broadening students knowledge with respect to Process Safety Management (PSM) system.
