| Summary | The research project in chemical engineering is undertaken by MEng students in their final year. It consists of a piece of original research into some technique or phenomenon in chemical engineering or a related discipline.  Research projects range from the purely experimental to entirely computational or theoretical, with many having a mixture of these elements. Each project has three elements:  
 
1. A comprehensive literature review. 
2. A substantial project involving the student in independant analysis of a problem, and giving them a degree of responsibility for defining the scope and conduct of the project. 
3. Presentation of the work in form of a poster presentation and a report. |
