Department of Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology and Environmental Technology is one of four institutes at Faculty of Engineering, University of Southern Denmark. The study programmes and research of the institute lies in the intersection between scientific and engineering disciplines with focus on global challenges and local opportunities and solutions.
Through its research, innovation and study programmes the department will contribute with solutions to global social and environmental problems. We will help create growth and prosperity through technically sound engineering solutions that integrate other disciplines. The department will be a gateway for lifelong learning for employees, students, and project and network partners.
By means of various forms of cooperation such as internships, student projects, networking and research projects with the industry and other public research institutions, there is a constant exchange of experience and knowledge which ensures that all parties have access to the latest and most relevant knowledge.
