The HND programme in Chemical Engineering is aimed at equipping students with the necessary technical skills and knowledge to enable them: i. develop the ability to apply mathematics, physical and chemical sciences, and information sciences to the Chemical Engineering discipline; ii. develop basic competence in various technical areas relevant to chemical engineering and to further enhance students’ knowledge of good engineering practices; iii. pursue suitable and responsible positions in industries like chemicals, processes, and allied fields such as plastics and polymers, biotechnology, electronics, paints, pharmaceuticals, foods, flavours, detergents, and cosmetics, among others; and iv. Improve their personal and professional career development. By undertaking the course, students gain a firm understanding of the principles of Chemical Engineering which makes them competent to tackle engineering challenges wherever they find themselves. Additionally, students will develop the necessary skills, knowledge, and attitude to thrive in industry. They will be able to: i. Interpret and create process flow diagrams; ii. Sketch equipment and read and interpret engineering drawings; iii. Perform calculations based on relevant scientific and engineering principles; iv. Specify and size equipment using appropriate principles and standards; v. Apply the principle of instrumentation and control to the design and operation of process plant; vi. Select appropriate materials for use in process plant; vii. Apply sound economic practice to the design and operation of process plant; viii. Work in a safe and responsible manner, identifying and avoiding any potential hazards; ix. Work in teams; x. Analyse problems and propose alternative sustainable solutions; xi. Write clear and concise instructions and reports; and xii. Enhance personal and professional development by acquiring new skills.
