The BEng in Chemical Engineering at Stellenbosch University focuses on the design and large-scale operation of processes that convert raw materials into valuable products — from fuels and pharmaceuticals to fertilisers, metals, and specialty chemicals. The curriculum integrates thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mass transfer, and reactor design with environmental and safety engineering, preparing graduates for a profession that is central to South Africa's petrochemical, mining processing, food, and manufacturing sectors. Graduates are eligible to register as Professional Engineers (Pr Eng) with the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA).
