Overview of Bachelor of Chemical Engineering in University of Malaysia Pahang UMP Malaysia
The four-year Bachelor of Chemical Engineering (BKC) programme was offered by Universiti Malaysia Pahang since year 2002 is an accredited programme by Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC), Board of Engineers Malaysia under the Washington Accord. The BKC programme aims to educate potential engineers to design, develop, and operate chemical processes by which chemicals, petroleum products, food, polymers, pharmaceuticals and consumer goods can be produced in a safe and sustainable way. Chemical processes involve reactions, heat transfer, separations and biological phenomena. The BKC programme also provides exposure to aspects of humanities and social sciences through subjects such as English language and foreign languages, entrepreneurship, economics, management and other non-engineering subjects.
