Chemical Engineering, Bachelor Thesis

In this course, students:

• practice a scientific approach with critical evaluation, analysis, and synthesis,
• practice the ability to apply methodology to address chemical engineering issues, and
• carry out an independent project, present it both orally and in writing, and perform as peer reviewers.

The course comprises a project, completed either individually or in groups. If several students collaborate on a larger project, individual contributions and areas of responsibility must be clearly defined at the start of the project.

The thesis typically involves experimental work, but other types of methods may be used, such as theoretical studies.

The independent project is documented in the form of a written report. It is normally written in Swedish with a summary in English. It is permitted to write the report in English or, by agreement with the examiner, in another language. If the report is written in a language other than Swedish, it must have a Swedish title and a summary in Swedish.

Progressive specialisation: G2E (has at least 60 credits in first‐cycle course/s as entry requirements, contains degree project for Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Science)

Education level: Undergraduate level

Admission requirements: 150 ECTS credits in the Chemical Engineering Master programme, including 15 ECTS credits at the G1F level or higher and registered for 15 ECTS credits at the G2F level, or registered for 60 ECTS credits in Chemical Engineering with 45 ECTS credits completed, including15 ECTS credits at the G1F level or higher and registered for 15 ECTS credits at the G2F level, or equivalent

Selection: Selection is usually based on your grade point average from upper secondary school or the number of credit points from previous university studies, or both.
