Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology

University of Cambridge

About the course

The Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology program at Cambridge is designed to equip students with skills to tackle problems such as developing sustainable food and water supplies in the face of climate change, improving global healthcare solutions and therapeutics, and facilitating the energy transition away from fossil fuels.

Students can choose to graduate after three years with a BA degree. However, most students opt to continue for a fourth year, which leads to both BA and MEng degrees.
