Faculty of Engineering | Department of Chemical Engineering

Profile of the Programme

Chemical Engineering Department intends to include all kinds of practical and the theoretical aspects of the field of study and it aims to equip students with skills including the design and application of chemical processes required for large-scale manufacturing, laboratory applications, solution development for industrial, technological and environmental problems as well as knowledge about the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms. The chemical engineering has its origins in oil refining and petrochemical production, moreover the skills of chemical engineering are now applied in a wide range of other industries, such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, paper, plastics, water purification, electricity generation, metals, textiles, fertilizer, cement, semi-conductors, perfumes and fragrances, cosmetics and detergents, paint, fertilizer and cement. The department was established in 1968. The department carried out its education at Eskisehir Osmangazi University, due to the partition of Anadolu Universty in 1993. After a 4-year break, it restarted its education as a new department at Anadolu Universty Iki Eylul Campus in 1997.The department continues its activities under Eskişehir Technical University, which was established by the Law No. 7141 published in the Official Gazette No. 30425 dated May 18, 2018. In Chemical Engineering Department, there are 8 Professors, 5 Associate Professor, 4 Assistant Professors and 6 Research Assistants responsible for carrying out the research and teaching duties of the department. Annual student quota of the department is 72 students, and the language of instruction is 30% English.

Recognition of Prior Learning

Depending on the degrees awarded, theoretical or practical courses taken as part of a degree (completed or not completed) may lead to recognition of these as prior learning by the programme administration. The students who have taken courses in another institution in Turkey or abroad can ask for credit and grade transfer. The executive boards of relevant programme will decide on the courses to be transferred covering students' entire academic program once and for all with the condition that the request for transfer be made within the first week of the academic year, the requests cannot be repeated.
This program requires compulsory Intensive English Language Training. The students are exempt from the Compulsory program if they have score of 70 or above from the centralized exemption exam, or present at least 65 from KPDS/ÜDS, 60 from IBT,140 CBT, 460 PBT TOEFL or 5,5 from IELTS.

Qualification Requirements and Regulations

A student is required to successfully complete the designated program of courses meet a minimum of 240 ECTS credit requirement and have a minimum GPA of 2.00/4.00 and no FF, DZ or YZ grades.

Access to Further Studies

May apply to master's or doctorate programmes in any field or proficiency in fine arts programmes

Graduation Requirements

A student is required to successfully complete the designated program of courses meet a minimum of 240 ECTS credit requirement and have a minimum GPA of 2.00/4.00 and no FF, DZ or YZ grades.
To be able to graduate from the program, students must obtain 240 ECTS with a minimum of 2.0 / 4.0 GPA and complete 40 work days long practical training successfully. Out of 240 ECTS, 11 ECTS credits should be obtained from nontechnical elective courses, at least one of them is determined by the Council of Higher Education, 31.5 ECTS should be obtained from technical elective courses and 197.5 ECTS should be obtained from compulsory courses.This programme intends to include all kinds of practical and the oretical aspects of the field of study and aims to furnish students with the required skills in all aspects of Chemical Engineering as well as knowledge of softwares such as CHEM-CAD, Aspen Plus, COMSOL and Matlab and the English language to equip students with the ability to do continuing research and to contribute to the development of scientific knowledge and technology according to the needs of society.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates

Graduates of the Chemical Engineering Program find jobs mainly in the following areas: petroleum refineries, food and beverage, medicine, paper, polymer, water treatment, electricity production, textile, semi-conductors, perfume and cosmetics, detergent, paint, fertilizer and cement industries, and universities.

Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading

A variety of assessment methods such as mid-term(s), assignment(s), exercise(s), project(s), practice(s), and a final exam are implemented in the programme. Assessment methods may include classical test(s), multiple-choice test(s), homework(s), performance evaluation(s), and product evaluation(s). In order to graduate from the programme, cumulative GPA must be minimum 2.00. A course grade is constituted by evaluating the above stated elements and given by using letters. Letter grades and their associated coefficients are as follows;
The students' success at the taken courses are assessed by a various evaluations throughout the semester followed by a final exam. The evaluating semester activities are determined by the instructor. These activities can consist of at least two midterms, quizzes, homework, laboratory performances, projects, and presentations, in general. The contributions of these activities to the final grade of the courses are determined by the instructor and it is assigned at the beginning of the semester. Exams are generally written exams.At least 70% attendance is mandatory for the courses. Students, who fall below 70% attendance of any course, cannot attend the final exam of that course and get DZ letter grade, failure to lack of attendance. The students, who take DZ from any of course, must register to that course again at the following semesters. The exams' questions depend on the learning outcomes and subordinate skills of the related courses.The student's success at the end of the semester is determined by the final grade of each course which is either of the letter grades given below. The exam grade intervals corresponding to the letter grades are determined by the instructor.
