of mechanical, electrical, electronic and instrumentation
components in addition to chemical process equipment.
Sometimes, a chemical engineer has also to deal
with bio-chemical, environmental and materials
aspects. The Bachelor’s degree course has
been designed accordingly to train the students
in all these fields including the basic subjects
such as English and Chemistry and more specialized
subjects of chemical engineering. Well-equipped
and relevant laboratories have also been established
in the Department for the practical training of
the students. In addition, industrial tours to
some good chemical industries are organized for
the students in order to expose them to real plants
working conditions.
Many graduates of the chemical engineering
department are now serving in important public
as well as private sector organizations within
Pakistan and even outside the country.
The Chemical Engineering Department also offers
a postgraduate course leading either to a Diploma
or Master of Engineering (M.E.) degree; the
later also includes a dissertation based on
research or some other kind of study of a problem
or task of practical nature. The department
has also manpower and laboratory facilities
to undertake research leading to M.Phil. and
Ph.D. degrees.
